THE 30-SECOND BRIEF
Bishop CISD’s agenda includes a resolution regarding a good cause exception under Texas House Bill 3 and an alternative standard to the requirement to maintain armed security officers on each campus. This suggests the district is actively determining how to comply with or seek exceptions to state-mandated school security staffing, which may involve alternative safety measures or contracted services instead of full-time armed officers on every site.
This policy decision can influence what security technologies, contracted security services, or alternative safety programs the district invests in to meet HB 3 expectations. Vendors in school safety planning, security officer services, mental health/safety programs, and technology-based security solutions can engage to help craft an alternative compliance strategy that is affordable, defensible to the board, and aligned with Texas Education Agency guidance.
House Bill 3 requires armed security officers on each campus; the district is considering an alternative standard via a good cause exception resolution.

Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.
