What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Beginning in the 2024-25 school year, this bill requires public high schools and

private high schools participating in a parental choice program to collect statistics

on violations of municipal disorderly conduct ordinances and certain crimes,

including homicide, sexual assault, burglary, battery, and arson, that occur on school

property or on transportation provided by the school. The high school must collect

statistics about the crime or disorderly conduct only if 1) it occurred on a weekday

between the hours of 6 a.m. and 10 p.m.; 2) it is reported to law enforcement; and 3)

a charge is filed or citation is issued. The bill further requires that the collected

statistics be reported to the Department of Public Instruction and included on the

annual school and school district accountability report. Finally, the bill clarifies that

DPI may not consider crimes statistics reported by a school or school district for

purposes of determining a school or school district's performance on the annual

school and school district accountability report.
