MPD’s School Safety Division Training
In a proactive move to ensure the safety of students, the Murfreesboro Police Department’s School Safety Division recently conducted an essential active shooter and active aggressor tabletop training. This training aimed to equip faculty and staff from various private schools in the city with the skills needed to handle potential emergencies effectively.
Participating Schools
The training included several notable institutions, such as the Middle Tennessee Christian School, Franklin Road Christian School, Saint Rose of Lima Catholic School, and ICM Academy. Each of these schools participated actively, demonstrating a commitment to creating a safe learning environment. By engaging in this training, teachers and administrators can better prepare themselves and their students for unexpected situations.
Importance of Preparedness
With the rise of incidents in educational settings, these training sessions are more crucial than ever. Schools must be prepared to respond swiftly and effectively. The MPD’s initiative not only enhances safety measures but also fosters a sense of security within the community.
