A plan to combat school harassment and bullying is now on its way to the governor.

House Bill 91, sponsored by Rep. Mike Cherry, D-Princeton, in its final form would require the state Department of Education to craft discipline guidelines. The bill would also require local school authorities to alert law enforcement when school harassment involves a potential felony. Yearly reports on school harassment would also be required to the Department of Education as well as the legislature.

A joint House-Senate conference committee crafted the final plan, which passed 34-2 in the Senate and 91-4 in the House.
