Sherman
, principal of South Park (IL) Elementary, sparked a lot of
conversation at LeaderTalk with his post about
school change and school safety
. He has extended that discussion to his own
blog, asking
these key questions
:
Are we just paranoid that something bad may happen in our schools because
there have been a handful of school shootings in the last decade? Should we stop
all this security talk? As I write this, I am preparing for our very first lock
down drill with our students (see previous post). Is it all a waste of
time?
