House Bill 2684 amends the Education Code and Occupations Code to provide for a model training curriculum, created and updated by the Texas Commission on Law Enforcement, for school district peace officers and school resource officers that addresses, among other issues, child and adolescent development and psychology, positive behavioral interventions and supports, and mental health crisis intervention. The bill requires officers in certain large school districts to complete an education and training program that uses the curriculum, establishes program requirements, and requires applicable school districts to adopt policies regarding the required training program.
