Senate Bill 107 amends the Education Code to require the designation of a campus behavior coordinator at each public school campus who is primarily responsible for maintaining student discipline and addressing issues relating to removing a student from class. The campus behavior coordinator's responsibilities include notifying a student's parent or guardian if certain disciplinary measures are taken against the student and considering certain factors before ordering certain measures. The bill requires a school district board of trustees to consider the same factors before ordering the expulsion of a student.
