Digest
HB 5306 expands the allowable uses of the school safety allotment and establishes a new mental and behavioral health allotment under the Foundation School Program. The bill specifies that safety funds may be used for security infrastructure, emergency response training, and the employment of safety personnel. The new mental health allotment would provide funding for school districts to develop comprehensive mental health programs, support staff wellness, and implement restorative justice practices. Schools would receive $100,000 annually if they have 1,000 or fewer students or $100 per student for larger districts​.
