Bill summary

Senate committee substitute makes the following changes to 1st edition.
Amends GS 115C-288(g) to require school principals to report certain acts to law enforcement when the principal has person knowledge, a reasonable belief, or actual notice (was a reasonable belief only) from school personnel that a covered act occurred on school property. Deletes explanation of reasonable belief and instead states that a principal who willfully fails to report to law enforcement may be subject to demotion or dismissal under GS 115C-325. Makes a clarifying change.
