💨 Abstract

Georgia Governor Brian Kemp signed a law aimed at preventing school shootings following the Apalachee High School shooting in September 2023. The law requires police to report threats to schools, quicker transfers of student records, mental health treatment coordination, and an anonymous reporting system. It mandates panic buttons for employees and annual electronic campus maps submission. The law makes adult prosecution default for 13-16-year-olds charged with certain school offenses.
