On Thursday, the state senate joined the house in unanimously approving the Ka’Mauri Harrison Act.
The bill aims to provide policy changes for virtual learning.
Fourth grader Ka’Mauri Harrison was taking a virtual assessment in September when his younger brother tripped over a BB gun in his bedroom. Jefferson Parish Public Schools then suspended him for six days for handling the gun.
District 37 State Representative Troy Romero said he was proud to sponsor this bill.
