S 3448

The Keeping All Students Safe Act aims to prevent and reduce the use of potentially harmful restraint practices in schools. It prohibits seclusion, mechanical restraint, chemical restraint, and dangerous physical restraint that restricts breathing or blood flow. The bill requires schools to implement positive behavioral interventions and supports, establish clear reporting requirements, and receive training for staff on de-escalation techniques and safe restraint practices. It also mandates states to develop plans to monitor and enforce these policies, ensuring student safety and well-being.
