Guidance Document Change: The 2019 General Assembly passed House Bill 1753, amending Section 22.1-138 of the Code of Virginia regarding the use and operation of electronic room partitions. This is a new requirement to provide safety notice and information about the operation of movable partitions both in schools where new partitions are being installed, as well as during the operation of existing partitions already installed in schools. This measure is to ensure the safety of students during the operation of the movable partitions.
