Senate Bill 5019 Titiyakin ng panukalang batas na ito na hindi magagamit ang pagpopondo na naglalayong kumuha ng mga nars, tagapayo, social worker, at psychologist sa mga paaralan upang kumuha ng mga opisyal ng mapagkukunan ng paaralan (SRO) at iba pang tauhan ng seguridad ng paaralan. Bisitahin ang Pahina ng Bill BACKGROUND Nagpasa ang mga mambabatas House Bill 1664 ​ sa sesyon ng lehislatura ng estado ng Washington noong nakaraang taon (2022) upang tumulong sa pagbibigay ng karagdagang mga mapagkukunan upang suportahan ang pisikal, panlipunan, at emosyonal na kagalingan ng mga mag-aaral. Nagbigay ito ng karagdagang pondo para sa mga distrito ng paaralan upang kumuha ng mga propesyonal tulad ng mga nars, tagapayo, mga social worker, at mga psychologist ng paaralan. Lumikha din ito ng bagong kategorya ng mga tauhan na tinatawag na Physical, Social, and Emotional Support Staff (PSES) na sumasaklaw sa mga posisyong tulad nito. Ang batas ay nag-aatas na ang lahat ng mga distrito ng pagpopondo ay makatanggap mula sa panukalang batas na ito ay dapat gamitin upang kumuha ng mga kawani na akma sa bagong kategoryang ito ng mga tauhan. Bilang bahagi nito, ang Tanggapan ng Superintendente ng Pampublikong Pagtuturo (OSPI) ay inatasan ng pagbuo ng mga panuntunan kung paano maipapatupad ng mga distrito ang bagong batas at pagtukoy kung aling mga eksaktong posisyon ng kawani ang maaaring isama sa kategorya ng trabaho ng PSES._d04a07d8-9cd1-3239- 9149-20813d6c673b_ Sa pagbuo ng mga panuntunang ito, isinama ng OSPI ang mga tauhan ng seguridad ng paaralan (aka School Resource Officers, o SRO) sa kategorya ng staffing ng PSES. Nangangahulugan ito na maaaring piliin ng mga distrito na gastusin ang mga bagong pondong ito, na nilayon upang tugunan ang kalusugan ng isip ng mag-aaral, sa mga SRO. BUOD Aalisin ng Senate Bill 5019 ang kakayahan ng mga distrito na gamitin ang bagong pondong ito mula noong nakaraang taon sa seguridad ng paaralan tauhan . Aalisin ng panukala ang pananalita na nagparamdam sa OSPI na dapat isama ang mga tauhan ng seguridad ng paaralan bilang pinapayagang paggamit ng mga bagong pondong ito sa panahon ng proseso ng paggawa ng panuntunan. Ang pag-alis sa wikang ito ng bill ay malamang na mag-aalis ng iba pang mga posisyon ng kawani (higit pa sa mga SRO) na kasalukuyang kasama sa kategorya ng staffing ng PSES . Gayunpaman, ang buong hanay ng mga eksaktong posisyon na isasama sa kategorya ng PSES ay hindi alam sa ngayon. Nasa OSPI na ang mas partikular na pagtukoy kung aling mga tauhan ang kasama at hindi kasama, sakaling maging batas ang panukalang batas na ito. Ang pagbabagong ito ay hindi makakaapekto sa kakayahan ng mga distrito na gamitin ang mga pondong ito upang kumuha ng mga posisyon tulad ng mga tagapayo, nars, social worker, o psychologist. MGA PUNTOS NA DAPAT PAG-IISIP TUNGKOL SA BILL NA ITO Ang panukalang batas na ito ay hindi papayagan lamang ang mga distrito na gamitin ang bagong pagpopondo na ito (na nilayon upang tumulong sa pagtugon sa krisis sa kalusugan ng isip ng mag-aaral) upang kumuha ng mga SRO at iba pang tauhan ng seguridad ng paaralan. Hindi ito magkakaroon ng epekto sa mga kasalukuyang pinagmumulan ng pagpopondo patungo sa mga SRO o mapipigilan ang mga distrito na gumamit ng iba pang mga pinagkukunan ng pagpopondo upang kumuha ng mga tauhan ng seguridad ng paaralan.

Senate Bill 5237 Ang panukalang batas na ito ay lilikha ng proseso ng reklamo na magagamit ng mga mag-aaral, magulang, at miyembro ng komunidad kapag nakita nila na ang isang distrito ay hindi naaangkop na sumusunod sa mga karapatang sibil ng estado, mga tuntunin sa pagdidisiplina, at iba pang mga batas. Bisitahin ang Pahina ng Bill BUOD Ang panukalang batas na ito ay lumilikha ng proseso para sa sinumang tao na magsampa ng reklamo kapag ang isang distrito ay hindi sumusunod sa mga batas ng estado sa mga sumusunod na lugar: ​ ​ Mga karapatang sibil, kabilang ang diskriminasyon at sekswal na panliligalig​ ​ Panliligalig, pananakot, o pananakot ​ Mga kinakailangan at patakaran sa kurikulum na may kaugnayan sa pagbabago ng mga materyales sa pagtuturo ​ Paggamit ng pagpigil o paghihiwalay ​ Disiplina ng mag-aaral Ang mga reklamong ito ay maaaring bilang tugon sa isang indibidwal na insidente sa isang tao, o maaari itong irehistro bilang isang "malawak na reklamo," na nauugnay sa isang mas malawak na grupo ng mag-aaral, o maging sa lahat ng mga mag-aaral sa isang distrito._cc781905-5cde-3194- bb3b-136bad5cf58d_ Bago magsampa ng indibidwal na reklamo, dapat munang ubusin ng isang tao ang anumang umiiral na mga pamamaraan ng reklamo sa ilalim ng batas ng estado. Ang isang "malawak na reklamo" ay maaaring tungkol sa kung paano naiiba ang pagtrato sa ilang grupo ng mag-aaral kaysa sa kanilang mga kapantay batay sa kanilang lahi, kasarian, oryentasyong sekswal, kapansanan, katayuang mamamayan o imigrante, atbp. ​ Ang Tanggapan ng Superintendente ng Pampublikong Pagtuturo (OSPI) ay responsable para sa pagtatatag and pangangasiwa ang proseso ng pagsisiyasat sa reklamo. Kung nakita ng OSPI ang hindi pagsunod sa batas ng estado sa isang distrito, ang superintendente ng distrito at ang lupon ng paaralan ay dapat bumuo, magpatibay, at magsumite ng plano sa pagsunod​ sa pamamagitan ng pakikipagtulungan sa komunidad ng paaralan at OSPI. Bago isumite ang planong ito, ang lupon ng paaralan ay dapat magsagawa ng pampublikong pagdinig tungkol dito at payagan ang pampublikong komento. ​ Kung matutuklasan na ang hindi pagsunod na ito sa isang distrito ay sinasadya, ang patuloy na mga pampublikong pagdinig ay dapat isagawa hanggang sa sila ay makasunod, at ang OSPI ay maaaring magpataw ng mga kahihinatnan sa isang distrito kabilang ang: pag-aatas sa isang distrito na magpatibay o muling magpatibay ng ilang mga patakaran o kahit na ang pag-alis ng pondo sa pangunahing edukasyon. MGA PUNTOS NA DAPAT PAG-IISIP TUNGKOL SA BILL NA ITO ​ Ang paglikha ng kategoryang "malawak na reklamo" ay maaaring maging isang mahalagang mekanismo para matawagan ng mga tao ang pansin sa kabiguan ng isang distrito na pantay na ipatupad ang mga batas ng estado para sa mga estudyanteng kanilang pinaglilingkuran. Bilang karagdagan, kung magkatulad, ang malawak na mga reklamo ay makikita sa maraming distrito sa buong Washington, maaari nitong i-highlight ang mas malawak na saklaw, mga pagkabigo sa antas ng estado na protektahan at suportahan ang lahat ng mga mag-aaral sa ilalim ng batas ng estado (lalo na sa kasaysayan na marginalized na mga mag-aaral tulad ng mga mag-aaral na may mga kapansanan, mga estudyanteng may kulay, at higit pa).​ Ang OSPI ang namamahala sa pangangasiwa ng lahat ng bagay na may kinalaman sa pampublikong edukasyon para sa estado ng Washington. Ang pagkakaroon ng OSPI bilang katawan na nangangasiwa sa prosesong ito ay maaaring isang built-in na salungatan ng interes. Ang malawak na reklamo sa maraming distrito ay tumutukoy sa mga sistematikong pagkabigo ng OSPI upang matiyak na ang mga karapatang sibil at mga karapatang pang-edukasyon ng mga mag-aaral ay sinusunod at pinoprotektahan. Bilang katawan ng pangangasiwa, malamang na hindi matukoy ng OSPI na ang malawak na mga reklamong ito ay may merito kung ilantad nito ang mga ito sa pagiging responsable para sa ilan sa mga sistematikong pagkabigo na ito.
