The bill amends Section 48.115 of the Education Code to increase the school safety allotment under the Foundation School Program. Specifically, it raises the annual allotment for each student in average daily attendance from $10 to $14 and increases the per campus allotment from $15,000 to $37,000. These changes aim to provide additional funding for school safety measures.

Additionally, the bill introduces a new requirement for school districts to submit an annual report to the agency by December 1, detailing the expenditure of funds received under this section. This provision is intended to enhance accountability regarding the use of allocated safety funds. The bill is set to take effect on September 1, 2025.
