This bill enacts the "Early Behavioral Intervention and Reporting Act," which requires each LEA and public charter school to implement a computer-based system that teachers and school staff must use to input data of early warning signs demonstrated by enrolled students. Each LEA and public charter school must ensure that each teacher and school staff member is trained to identify early warning signs and on how to input data into the computer-based system. As used in this bill, "early warning signs" means evidence of safety, health, or behavioral issues exhibited by a student and includes indicators of a student engaging in or being the victim of harassment, intimidation, bullying, or cyberbullying; making or receiving threats of violence; and exhibiting signs of substance abuse, mental health issues, self-harm, or suicidal ideation. COMPUTER-BASED SYSTEM This bill requires the computer-based system to meet all of the following criteria:  Align with the harassment, intimidation, bullying, and cyberbullying policy adopted by the LEA and with each school safety plan adopted by the LEA or public charter school. Include a database that is capable of receiving and maintaining student data entered by teachers and school staff on the early warning signs demonstrated by students. Immediately notify the LEA personnel serving on the LEA's threat assessment team, or the employee of the public charter school who is designated to receive such notification, when an early warning sign is entered into the system for a student. This bill requires the LEA or public charter school personnel receiving a notification of an early warning sign of a student to review the notification, as well as any other notifications previously received for the student, and determine whether further action is needed to address the student's behavior. ANNUAL REPORT This bill requires each LEA and public charter school to annually submit a report to the department of education that provides the following data collected by the LEA or public charter school in the immediately preceding school year:  The number of early warning signs input into the system. The number of early warning signs input into the system, disaggregated by the number input by a teacher, disaggregated further by the grade levels and subject areas taught by such teachers. The number of early warning signs input into the system, disaggregated by the number input by school staff, disaggregated further by the position, assignment, and duties of such school staff. The number of students for whom more than one early warning sign was input into the system. The number of early warning signs for each student for whom more than one early warning sign input into the system. A general description of the types of early warning signs input into the system. A general description of the actions taken by the LEA or public charter school in response to each early warning sign input into the system. This bill prohibits such reports from including any details or information that would allow a student to be identified. Additionally, such reports must comply with applicable federal and state relevant privacy laws. NONCOMPLIANCE If the commissioner of education finds that an LEA or public charter school is not complying, then this bill authorizes the commissioner to withhold state funds, in an amount determined by the commissioner, from the LEA or public charter school until the LEA or public charter school is in compliance. EXEMPTION FOR EXISTING COMPUTER-BASED SYSTEMS The computer-based system requirements of this bill do not apply to an LEA or public charter school that maintains a system for documenting early warning signs demonstrated by students that was implemented in the LEA or public charter school before July 1, 2026, as long as the LEA or public charter school continuously maintains and utilizes the system. However, the requirements relative to reporting, privacy, and noncompliance do apply.
