State law (KRS 158.154) requires schools to
report specified offenses committed on school
property to the local law enforcement agencies.
Immediate notification must be provided to police
departments when a principal has reasonable belief
that an act has occurred on school property or at
school-sponsored function involving assault
resulting in serious physical injury, a sexual
offense, kidnapping, assault involving use of
weapons, possession of firearms in violation of a
law or possession of controlled substance in
violation of law, or damage to property. School
property is defined as any public school building,
bus, public school campus, grounds, recreational
area, or athletic field, in the charge of the
principal. |
