Expected Impact:
To extend the terms of the current commission members, which are set to expire on June 30, 2024, so that they may continue to review and develop recommendations related to school safety strategies, in consultation and coordination with the Harris County Fire Marshal's Office, Harris County Department of Education, and the Region 4 Education Service Center. Additionally, the commission is exploring a future recommendation to the Court to reestablish the Harris County Safe School Commission as a standing commission of Harris County.
