BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) — With school shootings increasingly in the headlines, North Dakota and federal officials are developing the rules for a state program that would allow armed first responders to be posted in schools.

State School Superintendent Kirsten Baesler expects the draft to be complete by June 13.

The North Dakota Department of Public Instruction is working with the attorney general’s office and Department of Homeland Security officials to create an outline for the program.

North Dakota lawmakers passed a bill earlier this year that permits school districts to designate an armed first responder. The person cannot directly supervise students and must undergo training.

The legislation requires districts to create a security plan that’s approved by law enforcement and the Homeland Security Department’s North Dakota office.
