SANTA FE SCHOOL BOARD APPROVES $1.5M FOR IMPROVED SECURITY

  

The Santa Fe School Board has approved at least $1.5 million for increased security at its high school where a gunman killed eight students and two teachers two months ago.

The Santa Fe Board of Trustees voted Tuesday to spend the money on security measures at Santa Fe High School, including new door locks, a lobby security vestibule and a new alarm system.

The vote is the first major approval of renovations since the May 18 attack in which 10 people were killed and 13 were injured.  The 17-year-old student accused of carrying out the attack faces a long list of charges, including capital murder.

More than 100 residents met at Santa Fe City Hall this week to voice concerns over the approval process and the district's lack of communication.

  1. Typical. New gadgets.
    No armed staff in the plan.
    But they have resource officers….like before…when 20 kids got shot and 10 died.
    Sounds like a Brenham ISD decision.
    Let’s see if the outsourced BISD 40 person ‘task force’ has any Sheepdog Plans like ARMING QUALIFIED AND TRAINED STAFF ON SITE!!!!
    We’ll find out Monday…..Not holding my breath
