    4  and insert:
    5  guard, but such charges may not exceed the actual cost incurred
    6  by the sheriff to provide the training.
    7         c. A private school in a school district that has not
    8  voted, or has declined, to implement a guardian program may
    9  request that the sheriff in the county of the private school
   10  establish a guardian program for the purpose of training private
   11  school employees or school security guards. If the county
   12  sheriff denies the request, the private school may contract with
   13  a sheriff from another county who has established a guardian
   14  program under subparagraph 2. to provide such training. The
   15  private school must notify the sheriff in the private school’s
   16  county of the contract with a sheriff from another county before
   17  its execution. The private school or security agency is
   18  responsible for all training and screening-related costs for a
   19  school guardian program. The sheriff providing such training
   20  must ensure that any moneys paid by a private school or security
   21  agency are not commingled with any funds provided by the state
   22  to the sheriff as reimbursement for screening-related and
   23  training-related costs of any school district or charter school
   24  employee.
   25         d. The training program required in sub-subparagraph 2.b.
   26  is a standardized statewide curriculum, and each sheriff
   27  providing such training shall adhere to the course of
   28  instruction specified in that sub-subparagraph. This
   29  subparagraph does not prohibit a sheriff from providing
   30  additional training. A school guardian or school security guard
   31  who has completed the training program required in sub
   32  subparagraph 2.b. may not be required to attend another
   33  sheriff’s training program pursuant to that sub-subparagraph
   34  unless there has been at least a 1-year break in his or her
   35  appointment as a guardian or employment by a security agency as
   36  a school security guard in a school.
   37         e. The sheriff conducting the training pursuant to
   38  subparagraph 2. for school district and charter school employees
   39  will be reimbursed for screening-related and training-related
   40  costs and for providing a one-time stipend of $500 to each
   41  school guardian who participates in the school guardian program.
   42         f. The sheriff may waive the training and screening-related
   43  costs for a private school for a school guardian program. Funds
   44  provided pursuant to sub-subparagraph e. may not be used to
   45  subsidize any costs that have been waived by the sheriff. The
   46  sheriff may not waive the training and screening-related costs
   47  required to be paid by a security agency for initial training or
   48  ongoing training of a school security guard.
   49         g. A person who is certified and in good standing under the

   53  school security guard may be certified as a school guardian or
   54  school security guard by the sheriff without completing the
   55  training requirements of sub-subparagraph 2.b. However, a person
   56  certified as a school guardian or school security guard under
   57  this sub-subparagraph must meet the requirements of sub
   58  subparagraphs 2.c.-e.
   59         2. A sheriff who establishes a program shall consult with
   60  the Department of Law Enforcement on programmatic guiding
   61  principles, practices, and resources, and shall certify as
   62  school guardians, without the power of arrest, school employees,
   63  as specified in s. 1006.12(3), or shall certify as school
   64  security guards those persons employed by a security agency who
   65  meet the criteria specified in s. 1006.12(4), and who:
   66         a. Hold a valid license issued under s. 790.06 or are

  112  only if he or she is appointed by the applicable school district
  113  superintendent, charter school principal, or private school head

  402         (6) SAFETY AND SECURITY BEST PRACTICES.—Each district
  403  school superintendent shall establish policies and procedures
  404  for the prevention of violence on school grounds, including the

  407         (f) School safety requirements.By August 1, 2024, Each
  408  school district and charter school governing board shall comply
  409  with the following school safety requirements:
  410         1. All gates or other access points that restrict ingress
  411  to or egress from the exclusive zone of a school campus shall
  412  remain closed and locked during school supervision hours. For
  413  the purposes of this section, the term “exclusive zone” means
  414  the area within a gate or door allowing access to the interior
  415  perimeter of a school campus beyond a single point of entry. The
  416  term “school supervision hours” means the hours of the school
  417  day plus the reasonable time immediately before and after school
  418  during which student supervision is available per school
  419  district policy when students are on campus. A gate or other
  420  campus access point to the exclusive zone may only not be open
  421  or unlocked during school supervision hours if one of the
  422  following conditions is met, regardless of whether it is during
  423  normal school hours, unless:
  424         a. It is attended or actively staffed by a person when
  425  students are on campus;
  426         b. The use complies is in accordance with a shared use
  427  agreement pursuant to s. 1013.101;
  428         c.Another closed and locked gate or access point separates
  429  the open or unlocked gate from areas occupied by students; or
  430         d.c. The school safety specialist, or his or her designee,
  431  has documented in the Florida Safe Schools Assessment Tool
  432  portal maintained by the Office of Safe Schools that the gate or
  433  other access point is not subject to this requirement based upon
  434  other safety measures at the school. The office may conduct a
  435  compliance visit pursuant to s. 1001.212(14) to review if such
  436  determination is appropriate.
  437  
  438  This subparagraph does not apply to the nonexclusive zone of a
  439  school campus. The term “nonexclusive zone” means the area
  440  outside of the exclusive zone but contained on school property.
  441  Nonexclusive zones may include, but are not limited to, such
  442  spaces as parking lots, athletic fields and stadiums, mechanical
  443  buildings, playgrounds, bus ramps, agricultural spaces, and
  444  other areas that do not give direct, unimpeded access to the
  445  exclusive zone.
  446         2.a.During school supervision hours, all school classrooms
  447  and other instructional spaces must be locked to prevent ingress
  448  when occupied by students, except between class periods when
  449  students are moving between classrooms or other instructional
  450  spaces. If a classroom or other instructional space door must be
  451  left unlocked or open for any other reason other than between
  452  class periods when students are moving between classrooms or
  453  other instructional spaces, the door must be actively staffed by
  454  a person standing or seated at the door.
  455         b.Instructional spaces for career and technical education
  456  which are designed as open areas for which compliance with the
  457  requirements of sub-subparagraph a. affects the health and
  458  safety of students may be exempted from compliance with that
  459  sub-subparagraph by the school safety specialist. For such a
  460  space to be exempt, the school safety specialist, or his or her
  461  designee, must document in the Florida Safe Schools Assessment
  462  Tool portal maintained by the Office of Safe Schools that the
  463  instructional space is exempt from these requirements due to
  464  negative impacts to student health and safety and the presence
  465  of other safety measures at the school which prevent egress from
  466  the instructional space to hallways or other classrooms or
  467  instructional spaces.
  468         c.Common areas on a school campus, including, but not
  469  limited to, cafeterias, auditoriums, and media centers, which
  470  are used for instructional time or student testing must meet the
  471  requirements of sub-subparagraph a. only when such areas are
  472  being used for instructional time or student testing.
  473         3. For schools that do not have a secure exclusive zone,
  474  all campus access doors, gates, and other access points that
  475  allow ingress to or egress from a school building shall remain
  476  closed and locked during school supervision hours at all times
  477  to prevent unauthorized access, except when:
  478         a.ingress, unless A person is actively entering or exiting
  479  the door, gate, or other access point;
  480         b.The door, gate, or access point is actively staffed by
  481  school personnel to prevent unauthorized entry; or
  482         c. The school safety specialist, or his or her designee,
  483  has documented in the Florida Safe Schools Assessment Tool
  484  portal maintained by the Office of Safe Schools that the open
  485  and unlocked door, gate, or other access point is not subject to
  486  this requirement based upon other safety measures at the school.
  487  The office may conduct a compliance visit pursuant to s.
  488  1001.212(14) to review if such determination is appropriate. All
  489  campus access doors, gates, and other access points may be
  490  electronically or manually controlled by school personnel to
  491  allow access by authorized visitors, students, and school
  492  personnel.
  493         4. All school classrooms and other instructional spaces
  494  must clearly and conspicuously mark the safest areas in each
  495  classroom or other instructional space where students must
  496  shelter in place during an emergency. Students must be notified
  497  of these safe areas within the first 10 days of the school year.
  498  If it is not feasible to clearly and conspicuously mark the
  499  safest areas in a classroom or other instructional space, the
  500  school safety specialist, or his or her designee, must document
  501  such determination in the Florida Safe Schools Assessment Tool
  502  portal maintained by the Office of Safe Schools, identifying
  503  where affected students must shelter in place. The office shall
  504  assist the school safety specialist with compliance during the
  505  inspection required under s. 1001.212(14).
  506  
  507  Persons who are aware of a violation of this paragraph must
  508  report the violation to the school principal. The school
  509  principal must report the violation to the school safety
  510  specialist no later than the next business day after receiving
  511  such report. If the person who violated this paragraph is the
  512  school principal or charter school administrator, the report
  513  must be made directly to the district school superintendent or
  514  charter school governing board, as applicable.
  515         (h)Provision of school safety protocols and policies.—Each
  516  substitute teacher must be provided with all school safety
  517  protocols and policies before beginning his or her first day of
  518  substitute teaching at a school.
