Modifies provisions governing student attendance data reported for school accreditation processes

HB 3141 modifies school discipline policies and safety reporting requirements, not attendance data as its title suggests. The bill requires school districts to create written discipline policies covering corporal punishment procedures (requiring parental written permission), annual staff training, and mandatory reporting of specific violent crimes (like assault, sexual offenses, or weapons possession) to law enforcement when they occur on school property or during school activities. It also mandates that suspended students involved in such incidents must stay 1,000 feet from school property unless under direct adult supervision or meeting specific exceptions. These changes directly affect school districts, staff, students, and parents by altering disciplinary procedures and safety protocols. The bill is pending (introduced January 2026) and focuses on concrete safety measures, not attendance reporting.
