Safety in schools

“I can’t imagine any mother would feel her child is at risk in [our town],” she said.

I have so many thoughts about the tragedy at the Sandy Hook School in Newtown – it has been very hard for me, as a parent and a former teacher.  I cannot begin to imagine what the families in Newtown are going through.  Our schools are making safety their 1st concern.  The above quotation is from an article published in the local paper.  Some parents were asked how they feel the security is in our schools.  While I do think that my children are safe to a certain extent; I know that they (individually) know how to make themselves safe, because their father and I discussed it with them, not because visitors get badges before coming into the school.

Do you think that every parent in Newtown would have said the same thing on December 13, 2012?
