In the wake of the school shooting in Uvalde, Texas, where 19 children and two teachers died, parents are rushing to campuses before rumors can be quashed.
"Their confidence has been shaken from the Uvalde response," Trump said. "They’re just saying, ‘I’m going in,’ and we’ve had multiple incidents where managing parental response has become the crisis within the crisis."The primary responsibility of school and police officials is to first secure the area and make sure kids and staff are safe," Trump continued. "Parents will complain if they don’t have a mass notification message in a matter of two-to-five minutes.
Trump said districts can counter the mass panic — and severe disruptions to learning — by having a three-step plan in place. Next, school districts need a list of heightened security measures they can implement if a threat is made, like more officers at arrival and dismissal times or more teachers in the hallways.
