During a recent government meeting, safety and security in schools emerged as a primary concern, highlighted by a statement from Stephanie Bailey of Chestnut Hill Township. Bailey emphasized the commitment of local schools to maintain a secure environment for all students, utilizing a community policing approach that fosters collaboration among staff, students, and parents.

Bailey urged parents to report any safety concerns directly to school authorities or through established channels such as the \"Safe to Say\" program, which addresses issues including bullying. She noted the importance of direct communication with school principals to effectively resolve concerns and ensure a safe atmosphere.

In response to recent safety incidents, the district has implemented several measures, including random metal detector checks and the hiring of additional security personnel. Bailey expressed gratitude for the community's adaptability during a recent transition to remote learning, which was enacted as a precautionary measure following a safety tip. She reassured attendees that student and staff safety remains the highest priority, although details of the ongoing police investigation could not be disclosed.

The meeting also addressed a straightforward contracting question from Davios of Chestnut Hill Township, indicating a focus on administrative matters alongside safety discussions.
