Summary

Dr. Willemin told the board the district's safety measures include an Evolv weapons-detection system, Fortis armed security and school resource officers; the presentation referenced the district website for additional details.

During the Aug. 26 board meeting, Dr. Willemin provided the board with a safety update that focused on measures documented on the district website. Dr. Willemin identified three named components of the district’s approach: the Evolv weapons-detection system, contracted Fortis armed security and the district's school resource officers.

The update emphasized these measures as the current framework for campus safety and referred trustees to the district website for fuller details on protocols and implementation. No motions or votes were recorded on security contracts at the meeting; the item was presented as an informational update.

Why this matters: Safety protocols and contracted security are central to parent and staff concerns at the start of a school year. The board received the report but took no immediate procurement or contract action in the minutes.
