Summary
The Marion Center Area School Board recommended entering a $19,000 agreement with The Fatula Group for safety and security consultation after staff attended situational-awareness training on lockdown, hold-and-secure and other procedures.
The Marion Center Area School Board on Oct. 20 recommended entering a $19,000 agreement with The Fatula Group for district safety and security consultation. Mrs. Gaston, Director of Education, told the board that Bubba Fatula presented situational-awareness training during an Act 80 day and reviewed soft lockdown, hard lockdown and "hold and secure" procedures for staff.
The proposal was presented as part of ongoing emergency-preparedness work that district administrators said will feed into a Safety Week drill planned for Friday. Mrs. Gaston said the Fatula visit included guidance tailored to building-level staff and administrators; the board packet recommended approving the agreement "as presented" at the meeting. The agreement amount appearing in the recommendation was $19,000.
