School resource officers must now notify a student's parent or guardian before questioning the student about a possible crime that happened off school grounds, unless the crime relates to school safety, bullying at the school, or a school disturbance. This new requirement protects students' rights by ensuring parents are informed before their child is questioned by law enforcement about matters outside the school setting.
This bill does not directly amend codified state law.
