Starting July 1, Indiana schools will be required to report when school employees are injured by students.
Governor Eric Holcomb signed HEA1591, which requires schools to track teacher injuries and report the data to the Indiana Department of Education.It’s a problem WRTV Investigates has been tracking since 2019— teacher injuries.
The law, which requires public schools and charter schools to report injuries that occur after June 30 if the injury: "We are struggling to attract and retain teachers and other school employers,” said Clere. “It's also bus drivers, and counselors and cafeteria workers and everybody else."Clere says state leaders will use the data not to punish individual schools, but to improve policies and procedures.
“I predict it will be sobering to see the data,” said Clere. “No school is immune from this. It's a problem all over the state." Teachers told WRTV Investigates disturbing accounts including one teacher who suffered three concussions due to being hit punched and kicked, another who said a student grabbed her breast and sexually assaulted her.Rep. Clere says his legislation would apply to all school employees, not just teachers.
