I want the level of security in our
schools to provide a safe and
nurturing learning environment.
Our students and staff need to feel
safe knowing those security
provisions are in place but without
seeing and feeling them, just like
when you are visiting Disney
World. You know they are in place,
but it doesn’t take away from the
experience of learning.
What Are Safe Schools?
At early stages design stages engage:
• Administration & Staff
• Students & Parents
• Community
• State
• First Responders
Types of Threats:
• Bullying
• Fire/EMS
• Assailant
• etc.
Challenge - identifying security
elements
• Standardization isn’t possible
