HB 3674 Oklahoma House · 2026 Regular Session

Schools; school resource officer program; sexual assault reporting; continuing law enforcement training; CLEET; certification; sexual assault and sexual violence training; effective date.

HB 3674 establishes a three-year pilot program for school resource officers (SROs) in Oklahoma schools, requiring participating school districts to prioritize hiring officers with specialized school-based law enforcement training. The bill mandates that all sexual assault reports within schools be directed to law enforcement and requires SROs to complete one hour annually of CLEET-approved training on sexual assault response, trauma-informed practices, and violence prevention. These provisions directly affect school districts, SROs, and law enforcement agencies by updating certification requirements and ensuring SROs receive targeted training to address sexual violence. The bill amends existing laws to integrate these training and reporting standards into Oklahoma’s school safety framework.

MODERATE
The bill was converted from the House version to the Senate floor version, which includes substantive changes to the School Resource Officer Program and law enforcement training requirements. The Senate version adds a new category of eligible personnel (armed security guards) for districts without sworn officers, modifies radio access rules, and adjusts continuing education hour requirements for active and reserve officers.
Scope change
The bill's scope expanded to include armed security guards as eligible personnel for the School Resource Officer Program under specific conditions, whereas the House version only mentioned sworn law enforcement officers or retired officers.
ELIGIBILITY

Added 'armed security guard' as an eligible option for school districts that cannot secure a sworn law enforcement officer.

REQUIREMENT

Changed the requirement for radio system access to explicitly allow access to a 'police band radio system' in addition to the preauthorizing agency's system.

Reduced the mandatory continuing education hours for active reserve peace officers from eight hours to one hour.

Reduced the mandatory mental health training hours for active reserve peace officers from two hours to one hour.
