| VA | Signed into law 03/2003 | P-12 | Clarifies and revises the requirements for principals' reports to local law enforcement of incidents occurring on school buses, school property or at school-sponsored activities by (i) restructuring the clusters of incidents to separate assault and assault and battery without bodily injury from the more serious incidents involving assault and battery with bodily injury, sexual assault, death, shooting, stabbing, cutting, or wounding and (ii) eliminating the mandate that principals report all incidents involving assault and assault and battery to local law enforcement. The principal must still notify the parents of the students involved and the division superintendent and still has the discretion to report assaults and assaults and batteries without bodily injury to local law enforcement. http://leg1.state.va.us/cgi-bin/legp504.exe?031+ful+CHAP0954
