Sweetwater ISD reviews campus configuration changes and armed-security application process
Summary
Superintendent Spencer recommended moving third-grade students back to East Ridge after consulting grade teachers and principals; he also outlined re-application, psychological testing and training requirements for staff seeking armed security roles.
Superintendent Reggy Spencer told trustees he had met with third-grade teachers and recommended moving third graders back to East Ridge; principals Peggy Elliott and Amy Nixon indicated willingness to support the transition to benefit students.
Spencer also outlined the district's approach to armed security personnel: employees seeking consideration to be armed must re-apply annually, complete a new application, undergo psychological testing and meet training requirements. The board discussed these items during Superintendent Reports; no separate formal action was recorded in the minutes on student reassignment or a policy change for armed personnel.
