DCPS school board meets to discuss state’s new safety management program

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – The Duval County School Board on Tuesday heard a presentation about what went wrong in Parkland in 2017 when 17 people were killed in a school shooting.

It’s part of a program established by the state legislature to help schools be more prepared.

Pinellas County Sheriff Bob Gualtieri is the chair of the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School Public Safety Commission. He has more than 40 years of law enforcement experience.

He told the board Tuesday morning that it’s not if another school shooting happens — it’s when.

He explained the importance of communication, training, and having a plan in the event of a school shooting.
