Legislative Guidance Video Series
The 86th session of the Texas Legislature enacted many changes to statutes in efforts to help improve safety and security in our schools. The Texas School Safety Center has created these videos to highlight the statutory changes for school safety to guide schools toward improving safety and security and to maintain an effective and nurturing learning environment. They provide information on each subject and outline expectations now and as more guidance is released. They include a posting date by month at the beginning of each video as we will continue to update the videos when more guidance on these topics is finalized, such as policies and procedures that are being developed in the coming months.
