AS MANY SCHOOLS CONSIDER HIGHER SECURITY, RIO RANCHO PUBLIC SCHOOLS HAS A PLAN. SCHOOL OFFICIALS THERE ARE CURRENTLY CONSIDERING LETTING CERTAIN SECURITY OFFICERS BE ARMED ON CAMPUS SO THEY CAN BETTER PROTECT STUDENTS. NOT ONLY WOULD THOSE OFFICERS GET A RAISE, THEY’D HAVE TO UNDERGO NEW TRAINING, BE CERTIFIED AND EVALUATED.
THE PROPOSAL COST WOULD BE 50-THOUSAND DOLLARS, PART OF WHICH WOULD HELP PAY FOR OFFICERS’ RAISES.
THE SCHOOL HAS TO APPROVE THE PROPOSAL AS WELL. AND PARENTS CAN LEARN MORE ABOUT IT ON AUGUST 2ND, WHEN A MEETING WILL BE HELD AT THE RIO RANCHO PUBLIC SCHOOL TRAINING CENTER.
