ALT Are we truly prepared, or are we just hoping nothing happens on our campus? I ask this as a security professional and as a father. When you look at your childs school, ask a few honest questions. If something feels wrong, can the front office, security, and maintenance talk to each other instantly on radios, or are you relying on phones and messages that might not be seen in time? If a custody dispute or domestic situation shows up at drop off or pick up, does your team have a clear, practiced plan, or are you hoping it stays calm? If a stranger walks onto campus and refuses to leave, does everyone know exactly who locks what, who calls who, and where students and staff should go? Are your officers trained beyond the minimum? Do they know where the AED is without thinking? Do they know how to use it? When was the last time you practiced lockdown, shelter in place, fire, severe weather, and alternate routes in a realistic way, not just on paper? Do your security officers have keys and access to every area they are responsible for, or could they be locked out while a threat moves freely inside? Real incidents show attackers look for vulnerability and predictability. Prepared schools are less attractive than schools that look like soft targets. That preparation is not about fear. It is about responsibility. During a real emergency, staff and security will not rise to the occasion. They will fall to the level of their training. Our job is to make sure that lowest level is still high enough to keep children and staff alive. At Global Protection Agency, LLC we train School Resource Officers and campus security with high stress, scenario based drills: custody disputes at the front office, unauthorized entry attempts, medical emergencies in the hallway, and active threat scenarios. The goal is simple. When something happens, it should feel familiar, not new. At Lake Magdalene Christian School, the administration chose to answer these questions with action. They bring Global Protection Agency on campus for school functions, church services, arrival and dismissal, and special events when students are present. Parents see a professional security presence whose only focus is the safety of their children so teachers can teach and kids can simply be kids. Students should be thinking about learning and what is in their lunch box, not where they would hide if something went wrong. A trained School Resource Officer and a real security program give them that peace of mind every single day. I am an NRA firearms instructor, American Red Cross First Aid CPR AED instructor, Chief Range Safety Officer, School Resource Officer, and a father. I know what it feels like to drop your child off and want to be sure someone has thought through the worst so your child can experience the best. If you are a school administrator, board member, or parent and you want an honest assessment of where your security stands and how to improve it, I am available for a confidential consultation. Lake Magdalene Christian School has made that commitment for their families. Has your childs school? Global Protection Agency, LLC Our Business Protecting Yours.
