Texas school districts must form safety committees under new rule

Original: Out today: Every # Texas school district is required to form a safety and security committee. It must have school board

Every Texas school district is now required to establish a safety and security committee, effective today. The committees must include school board members, law enforcement, medical professionals, a teacher, and parents. Critics, including the Texas Observer, point out that students themselves are absent from the mandated membership, raising questions about whether those most affected by school safety policies will have a voice in shaping them.

Why now: The statewide requirement takes effect today, prompting discussion about school safety policy and the exclusion of students from the committees.
