Michigan’s K-12 schools must now establish threat assessment teams as part of new safety measures aimed at identifying and addressing potential risks before they escalate. These teams will evaluate concerns raised by students, staff, or community members to prevent violent incidents. The mandate follows growing calls for proactive school security strategies after high-profile cases of school violence nationwide. Implementation details, including team composition and training protocols, will shape how districts respond to emerging threats.
