HB 356 Mississippi House · 2026 Regular Session

Mississippi School Risk Management Task Force; create.

HB 356 would have created the Mississippi School Risk Management Task Force to study and improve risk management in schools. The task force would assess school district needs, review emergency plans (including for disasters like floods and tornadoes), recommend best practices (such as annual disaster drills), and identify resource gaps like FEMA grant opportunities. It would directly affect school districts, administrators, and emergency management agencies across Mississippi. The bill required the task force to report annual recommendations to the legislature but died in committee on February 3, 2026, without becoming law.
