Improved Security Necessary in Schools
More and more we hear reports of violence in schools. We experience it even on our own campuses, just as bad as it possibly was in our highschools. My highschool had 4 different entrances, only one of them guarded with a security gaurd. All of them were unlocked and accesible from the outside, and there are many students in this grade level with similar experiences. Every entrance should be watched, regular drug checks should be made, and security drills are a necessity. When dealing with grade schools, security is even more important what with so many younger children in one place. It is detrimental that these budget cuts on security stop... the money must be taken away from something less important, for if the schools are not safe then classes should not take place at all.

safety is such a big important issue with schools today. it is natural to think schools are safe and should be a safe for our students but these days, anything can happen and it's sad.
sometimes i think more security is good. sometimes i think it is not so good. dont you think that more security is like playing a game with someone. what can i sneak in... what can i get away with. no matter how much security you have on a place, stuff happens and thigs get by. in my high school there was like 25+ doors that led to the outside. what would we do, add detecters at every one? i think creating a safe and carring community is more important than any security technology can provide
