        AN ACT directing the commissioner of  education  to  develop  an  online

          The People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and  Assem-

        bly, do enact as follows:
 
     1    Section  1.  The  commissioner  of  the  department of education shall
     2  develop a user-friendly online incident reporting  system  that  schools
     3  shall  use  exclusively  to  record incidents in compliance with section
     4  2802 of the education law. Schools shall have secure private  access  to
     5  their own accounts. The computer program shall automatically compile the
     6  data  entered  into  an annual report for each school in compliance with
     7  the provisions of such section. Schools shall report each incident with-
     8  in fourteen days of the occurrence and may update each  incident  report
     9  within  thirty days of the occurrence. Any changes to an incident report
    10  after thirty days of the occurrence  shall  first  be  approved  by  the
    11  commissioner. The commissioner shall develop appropriate penalties for a

    12  school's  failure to comply in a timely manner and a school's failure to
    13  report an incident. The commissioner shall  also  promulgate  rules  and
    14  regulations  allowing for more appropriate and more comprehensive proce-
    15  dures for its assessment of evidence when schools are seeking  to  avoid
    16  being designated as persistently dangerous.
    17    § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
