Hello Mr. Veal,
Thank you for directing me to the school district's policies and procedures. Under what tab can I find the safety procedures, specifically in the case of an active shooter?

Additionally, are there any current expense reports related to preparedness in the case of an active shooter (i.e. school safety patrol, ALICE training, insurance agreement)?

In regards to the District's current pursuit of Active Shooter Workplace Violence Insurance, would you be able to please provide me with any documents detailing the insurance coverage?

Thank you for your time.

Best,
Sarika
