Indiana schools will be able to step up their security with financial help from the state.
Governor Mike Pence signed the School Safety Bill into law Tuesday afternoon.
It creates a school security guard program. It defines specific training requirements for school resource officers.
A previous version required schools to have an armed employee on campus. That section was taken out last month.
