Join us for our two-part consensus meeting on Arming School Personnel.  We’ll be learning about the issues related to this topic and seeking your input to answer the question, “Why are Ohio Schools allowed to arm their teachers without informing the community?”

 Description:  Learn about the issues underlying this topic, including:  1) What is the proper role of the state vs. local school boards in decision making? 2) Should community members be informed of the decision to arm school personnel?  3) Who should be armed, if anyone?  4) What training should be be required of armed personnel? 4) Where should weapons be stored? 5) What are the costs and liability issues for schools and armed personnel? and 6) How does having guns in the schools affect perceptions of safety?
