PLAN for School Safety Act of 2025 Preparing Leaders to Assess...
To amend the Homeland Security Act of 2002 to establish Regional School Safety Development Centers to provide consultation for schools to develop or improve a school safety plan based on evidence-based best practices, and for other purposes.
This bill, known as the PLAN for School Safety Act of 2025, aims to enhance school safety by creating Regional School Safety Development Centers. These centers will offer guidance to schools to help them create or refine their safety plans, using proven methods and best practices. The bill is a response to concerns about school safety and aims to provide targeted support to schools across different regions.
The bill would impact schools by providing them with access to expert advice and resources to strengthen their safety measures. This would be particularly beneficial for schools in areas with limited access to such resources, potentially improving the overall safety and security for students and staff.
As of April 1, 2025, the bill has been introduced in the House and has been referred to the House Committee on Education and Workforce. This is the first step in the legislative process, where the bill will be reviewed and potentially advanced for further consideration.
