Without a moment’s hesitation, Toppenish School's superintendent John Cerna will tell you the eight schools in his rural district south of Yakima are safer than those in Seattle.
‘s superintendent John Cerna will tell you the eight schools in his rural district south of Yakima are safer than those in Seattle., is because his district invests in armed school security staff – and select administrators carry guns on campus.
In the wake of the Uvalde school shooting in Texas two weeks ago, debates continue on the ways schools and communities can improve school security. “I’ve got a lot more people supporting what we’re doing,” Cerna told Dori. Any opposition he hears comes from people who “don’t live in Toppenish.” At the same time, the district spends $250,000 each year on school security personnel while gun-carrying administrators volunteer for their role. Currently, there are no trained teachers who volunteer for this role; union regulations require teachers to be paid for such a task.
