Your feedback helps us prioritize what to improve next.
The committee did not approve the purchase of portable weapon detection units. It supported sending the district’s safety work to the full School Committee and asked for incident data to inform future consideration. The district also discussed developing an outside safety assessment and a group to improve emergency communication during arrival and dismissal, but the minutes do not record final votes on those proposals.
