The presentation focused on school perimeter security, interior security, accessibility and situational awareness.
The information from the presentation will be reviewed by the District 56 Board of Education's Safety Committee as the district continues to study what additional safety measures could be feasibly implemented in the overall safety plan.
oth Chief Baker and Sergeant DiGiacomo have been attending training classes to get a better understanding of what law enforcement and schools should be doing to help keep schools safe.
