Judson ISD renews exception to House Bill 3 requiring one armed officer per campus

The Judson ISD board approved a motion to renew the district’s exception to the House Bill 3 mandate requiring one armed security officer at each campus.
Board member Miss Ryan moved to approve the exception and Trustee Mister Macias seconded; the motion passed 7–0. The superintendent and trustees praised Chief Ramon and the HR department for recent campus police hires and said the district will continue to meet safety requirements while using the exception process required by the legislature.
The action was described as an annual renewal tied to legislation from the 89th Texas Legislature; the board noted it must renew the exemption each year. The trustees did not change district safety policy during the meeting. The district said it had conducted intruder-detection audits at four campuses with no findings and that it will continue working on security measures district-wide.
