General Information
Action Summary The purpose of this regulatory action is to revise current Board of Education regulations to ensure that all provisions are consistent with reporting requirements of the Code of Virginia, the Safe and Drug Free Schools and Communities Act (20 U.S.C. 7101 et seq.), the Gun Free Schools Act (20 U.S.C. 7151 et seq.), and the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (20 U.S.C 1414 et seq.). The current Board of Education regulations contain the requirements for the reporting of acts of violence and substance abuse in Virginia public schools. Since the regulations were first promulgated, state and federal laws have been amended to change the reporting requirements; therefore, the Board of Education regulations need to be reviewed and updated as necessary to comport with the new state and federal reporting requirements.
