Earlier this year, PSEA asked members to share their ideas on making our public schools safe from violence in the aftermath of the tragic school shooting in Parkland, Florida. As one of the Vice Chairs of the new School Safety Task Force, PSEA President Dolores McCracken shared those suggestions with members of the Task Force, including Gov. Tom Wolf and Auditor General DePasquale. (Read the PSEA report)
Based on this PSEA member feedback, observations shared during the broader regional discussions, and commentary provided through an online feedback form, the new task force has recognized in their full report released Aug. 27, “multiple themes, barriers and opportunities” for a safer Pennsylvania school environment.
More information on the update from the PA School Safety Task Force is available on the Governor’s website.
