National Strategy for School Security Act of 2025
The National Strategy for School Security Act of 2025 requires the Department of Homeland Security, in coordination with the Department of Education and other federal agencies, to develop and annually update a national strategy for protecting elementary and secondary schools from terrorism. Within one year of enactment, the strategy must be submitted to specified congressional committees and updated annually until 2033, detailing existing federal security programs, funding, and identified school vulnerabilities. The strategy must outline concrete steps to address security gaps while avoiding duplication of existing efforts and building on current evaluations. This bill directs federal coordination but does not create new funding or impose direct requirements on schools.
