La. Rev. Stat. Ann. 17:1948 requires school districts and open-enrollment public charter schools, to place, operate, and maintain video cameras with audio recording capability in certain. Self-contained classrooms and other special education settings for students with disabilities, upon the request of a parent or legal guardian, for the purpose of promoting student safety.

These procedures have been specifically developed for purposes of promoting students safety and complying with Louisiana law.
