During a recent government meeting, discussions centered on the security measures in place at local schools, highlighting both strengths and areas for improvement. The officials expressed confidence that all school buildings are secure, with protocols ensuring that doors remain locked at all times. However, they acknowledged a significant gap in technology that prevents them from monitoring compliance with these security measures effectively.

Currently, the middle school and Titan Hill have implemented a two-tiered security system, requiring visitors to enter a vestibule and check in with the office before gaining access to the rest of the building. This system is designed to deter potential threats by ensuring that all visitors are accounted for. In contrast, the high school lacks a similar setup, allowing visitors to enter the building and move freely without immediate oversight. This has raised concerns, as there have been instances where individuals have entered the school without proper checks.

To address this vulnerability, officials proposed the construction of a secure vestibule at the high school. This addition would enforce a mandatory check-in process for all visitors outside of regular entry and exit times, enhancing overall safety. The meeting underscored the importance of upgrading security infrastructure to protect students and staff effectively, particularly in light of recent discussions about school safety nationwide.
