Allows school district to appoint certain specialists to provide school security services to schools.

This bill allows New Jersey school districts to appoint qualified "school security specialists" to provide security services in schools. To qualify, individuals must have at least 20 years of law enforcement experience (in a supervisory role), pass background checks, complete specific training, and meet licensing requirements. The bill mandates training in active shooter response, de-escalation, emergency planning, and firearms handling, with annual refreshers required. School districts must still maintain existing school safety specialist roles under current law. The bill directly affects school districts, private security companies, and qualified law enforcement professionals seeking school security roles.
