HEMPFIELD SCHOOL DISTRICT SAFETY AND SECURITY COUNCIL MAKES RECOMMENDATIONS

The Hempfield school district’s safety and security council is recommending that random searches of district students continue next school year. The Trib reports that along with that suggestion that the district should buy more weapons detectors to be used in random searches at the district’s two middle schools, Harrold School and the high school. Security upgrades have been a focus at Hempfield since October of last year, when three high school students were caught exchanging two loaded handguns on a bus and in a school bathroom.
