• http://chrisinmaryville.net/
Clarksville High School in Arkansas will be the first high school to utilize state laws that allow armed security guards in schools to arm teachers. Training is underway now that will facilitate teachers carrying concealed weapons when classes resume. David Hopkins, superintendent for Clarksville explained: “The plan we’ve been given in the past is, ‘Well, lock your doors, turn off your lights and hope for the best.’ That’s not a plan.” Twenty teachers, including volunteers and other facility are training with a private security firm to turn them into licensed guards. Those in the program will receive 9-mm Walter PPS and holster; including $1,100 for a total of $50,000 the school in spending.
