Our job is almost 14:03.433 --> 14:05.966 align:start position:10% line:58% size:77.5% like a health inspector, a fire 14:04.533 --> 14:06.600 align:start position:10% line:58% size:72.5% inspector, except we're going 14:05.233 --> 14:09.400 align:start position:10% line:58% size:77.5% in and making sure the mandates 14:05.966 --> 14:10.466 align:start position:10% line:58% size:62.5% that are set forth by the 14:06.600 --> 14:14.500 align:start position:10% line:58% size:67.5% school safety was a TEA Act 14:09.400 --> 14:15.600 align:start position:10% line:58% size:67.5% are being followed.

We also required to 14:24.300 --> 14:29.533 align:start position:10% line:58% size:70% come out with a report every 14:25.100 --> 14:31.866 align:start position:10% line:58% size:72.5% year. We did our first report 14:28.866 --> 14:32.533 align:start position:10% line:58% size:67.5% last year. That shows where 14:29.533 --> 14:34.500 align:start position:10% line:58% size:70% we're at and in the state of 14:31.866 --> 14:35.966 align:start position:10% line:58% size:70% Kentucky. What resources are 14:32.533 --> 14:39.666 align:start position:10% line:58% size:72.5% needed word. We need to go to 14:34.500 --> 14:40.766 align:start position:10% line:58% size:72.5% make school safer. We've been 14:35.966 --> 14:41.833 align:start position:10% line:58% size:72.5% doing this for 3 years.

Add to 14:56.500 --> 15:00.633 align:start position:10% line:58% size:70% Mister Akers. We often heard 14:57.166 --> 15:01.333 align:start position:10% line:58% size:77.5% the term hardening the schools, 14:59.700 --> 15:04.433 align:start position:10% line:58% size:70% but there's another. I think 15:00.633 --> 15:04.766 align:start position:10% line:58% size:72.5% another term that both of you 15:01.333 --> 15:05.800 align:start position:10% line:58% size:67.5% prefer. But what do we mean 15:04.433 --> 15:08.533 align:start position:10% line:58% size:20% by that? 15:04.766 --> 15:09.266 align:start position:10% line:58% size:67.5% >> Well, there are 2 camps. 15:05.800 --> 15:10.233 align:start position:10% line:58% size:70% What I call the hardware and 15:08.533 --> 15:11.200 align:start position:10% line:58% size:77.5% the hardware But there are some 15:09.266 --> 15:12.966 align:start position:10% line:58% size:65% where the hardware, right, 15:10.233 --> 15:14.933 align:start position:10% line:58% size:75% right? The hardware side of it 15:11.200 --> 15:15.600 align:start position:10% line:58% size:77.5% is basically or access control. 15:12.966 --> 15:16.233 align:start position:10% line:58% size:75% That's the term you're looking 15:14.933 --> 15:19.533 align:start position:10% line:58% size:67.5% for how we're going to make 15:15.600 --> 15:21.233 align:start position:10% line:58% size:62.5% sure that our schools are 15:16.233 --> 15:21.900 align:start position:10% line:58% size:70% secure as possible. Exterior 15:19.533 --> 15:24.166 align:start position:10% line:58% size:77.5% doors locked and that the front 15:21.233 --> 15:24.833 align:start position:10% line:58% size:50% door to be monitored 15:21.900 --> 15:27.233 align:start position:10% line:58% size:75% electronically and have people 15:24.166 --> 15:30.300 align:start position:10% line:58% size:70% come in to be sure that they 15:24.833 --> 15:31.300 align:start position:10% line:58% size:67.5% are checking in to see what 15:27.233 --> 15:31.966 align:start position:10% line:58% size:77.5% they're doing, making sure that 15:30.300 --> 15:34.033 align:start position:10% line:58% size:72.5% they are there for legitimate 15:31.300 --> 15:34.833 align:start position:10% line:58% size:67.5% reasons. And then the other 15:31.966 --> 15:36.566 align:start position:10% line:58% size:70% side of this equation is the 15:34.033 --> 15:38.966 align:start position:10% line:58% size:65% mental health side of this 15:34.833 --> 15:40.766 align:start position:10% line:58% size:70% issue. And there are so many 15:36.566 --> 15:41.366 align:start position:10% line:58% size:75% children that have issues long 15:38.966 --> 15:44.433 align:start position:10% line:58% size:67.5% before COVID even came into 15:40.766 --> 15:45.133 align:start position:10% line:58% size:60% play that need help. Now 15:41.366 --> 15:47.066 align:start position:10% line:58% size:77.5% schools are served as kind like 15:44.433 --> 15:48.200 align:start position:10% line:58% size:75% triage units. We identify some 15:45.133 --> 15:48.866 align:start position:10% line:58% size:75% of these issues, but we're not 15:47.066 --> 15:50.533 align:start position:10% line:58% size:70% trained to be able to handle 15:48.200 --> 15:52.500 align:start position:10% line:58% size:70% it. And so that's, you know, 15:48.866 --> 15:55.233 align:start position:10% line:58% size:70% therefore, we get in contact 15:50.533 --> 15:56.166 align:start position:10% line:58% size:67.5% with our mental health care 15:52.500 --> 15:56.866 align:start position:10% line:58% size:72.5% providers in our communities. 15:55.233 --> 15:58.966 align:start position:10% line:58% size:72.5% And we try to send parents to 15:56.166 --> 16:00.166 align:start position:10% line:58% size:75% them with their children safe. 15:56.866 --> 16:01.100 align:start position:10% line:58% size:77.5% We can't just get some of these 15:58.966 --> 16:02.100 align:start position:10% line:58% size:40% issues resolved. 16:00.166 --> 16:05.900 align:start position:10% line:58% size:72.5% >> So do we know that schools 16:01.100 --> 16:06.600 align:start position:10% line:58% size:70% are complying? Mister Wilcox 16:02.100 --> 16:08.933 align:start position:10% line:58% size:77.5% with making sure exterior doors 16:05.900 --> 16:11.833 align:start position:10% line:58% size:72.5% are locked and that those are 16:06.600 --> 16:14.500 align:start position:10% line:58% size:75% now mandates is not permissive 16:08.933 --> 16:17.100 align:start position:10% line:58% size:72.5% language. It's a requirement. 16:11.833 --> 16:18.866 align:start position:10% line:58% size:72.5% >> From a report last we were 16:14.500 --> 16:21.700 align:start position:10% line:58% size:75% in the high 90's with with a a 16:17.100 --> 16:22.866 align:start position:10% line:58% size:70% 90 percentile of compliance. 16:18.866 --> 16:24.633 align:start position:10% line:58% size:75% And we also see with this year 16:21.700 --> 16:27.666 align:start position:10% line:58% size:62.5% reported even going to be 16:22.866 --> 16:28.566 align:start position:10% line:58% size:70% better. But the high 90's is 16:24.633 --> 16:29.833 align:start position:10% line:58% size:65% not good enough for school 16:27.666 --> 16:30.700 align:start position:10% line:58% size:75% safety. We have to be 100% all 16:28.566 --> 16:31.333 align:start position:10% line:58% size:72.5% the time. The end. That's one 16:29.833 --> 16:34.500 align:start position:10% line:58% size:67.5% of the reasons why we do on 16:30.700 --> 16:35.066 align:start position:10% line:58% size:65% site reviews.

It supposed to be 17:30.133 --> 17:34.233 align:start position:10% line:58% size:70% close. Those are some of our 17:31.100 --> 17:34.933 align:start position:10% line:58% size:67.5% best to help. First when it 17:33.600 --> 17:37.000 align:start position:10% line:58% size:62.5% comes to school safety or 17:34.233 --> 17:37.633 align:start position:10% line:58% size:72.5% parents coming in and saying, 17:34.933 --> 17:40.200 align:start position:10% line:58% size:77.5% well, it was too easy for me to 17:37.000 --> 17:41.133 align:start position:10% line:58% size:65% get in. We need to work on 17:37.633 --> 17:41.733 align:start position:10% line:58% size:62.5% this. And that's what our 17:40.200 --> 17:42.300 align:start position:10% line:58% size:65% office is there to do him. 17:41.133 --> 17:45.233 align:start position:10% line:58% size:60% >> What lessons have you 17:41.733 --> 17:47.266 align:start position:10% line:58% size:52.5% learned just from the 17:42.300 --> 17:49.233 align:start position:10% line:58% size:77.5% information that we know so far 17:45.233 --> 17:49.966 align:start position:10% line:58% size:75% about you've all day?

That incident from 17:57.866 --> 18:02.000 align:start position:10% line:58% size:55% happening in Kentucky. 17:59.833 --> 18:02.933 align:start position:10% line:58% size:62.5% >> I think that I've been 18:00.966 --> 18:03.666 align:start position:10% line:58% size:62.5% hearing in the news media 18:02.000 --> 18:06.733 align:start position:10% line:58% size:77.5% basically talked about exterior 18:02.933 --> 18:07.400 align:start position:10% line:58% size:77.5% doors being breached, mentor in 18:03.666 --> 18:08.966 align:start position:10% line:58% size:60% and interior doors being 18:06.733 --> 18:09.700 align:start position:10% line:58% size:67.5% breached. And like Ben just 18:07.400 --> 18:12.533 align:start position:10% line:58% size:72.5% mentioned, our access control 18:08.966 --> 18:13.200 align:start position:10% line:58% size:77.5% laws require those things to be 18:09.700 --> 18:15.733 align:start position:10% line:58% size:65% in place here in Kentucky. 18:12.533 --> 18:17.233 align:start position:10% line:58% size:70% So I think that we should be 18:13.200 --> 18:17.933 align:start position:10% line:58% size:77.5% pretty good there. But like Ben 18:15.733 --> 18:18.233 align:start position:10% line:58% size:70% said, it's not 100% and that 18:17.233 --> 18:21.266 align:start position:10% line:58% size:72.5% needs to be closer to 100% on 18:17.933 --> 18:22.633 align:start position:10% line:58% size:12.5% that. 18:18.233 --> 18:25.933 align:start position:10% line:58% size:72.5% >> What about metal detectors 18:21.266 --> 18:29.400 align:start position:10% line:58% size:40% in every school? 18:22.633 --> 18:30.233 align:start position:10% line:58% size:70% Metal detectors AR is window 18:25.933 --> 18:30.933 align:start position:10% line:58% size:22.5% dressing. 18:29.400 --> 18:31.666 align:start position:10% line:58% size:55% It sets a standard for 18:30.233 --> 18:32.900 align:start position:10% line:58% size:72.5% the school.

So what is the lesson 22:52.833 --> 22:57.800 align:start position:10% line:58% size:75% we need to learn? Mister Acres 22:55.333 --> 22:58.500 align:start position:10% line:58% size:25% from that? 22:55.700 --> 23:00.600 align:start position:10% line:58% size:65% >> Well, the lessons we've 22:57.800 --> 23:04.366 align:start position:10% line:58% size:65% learned is that we need to 22:58.500 --> 23:05.066 align:start position:10% line:58% size:72.5% approach school shooting as a 23:00.600 --> 23:05.700 align:start position:10% line:58% size:70% community issue.

So after 23:09.700 --> 23:11.700 align:start position:10% line:58% size:67.5% shooting is going on in the 23:10.366 --> 23:13.733 align:start position:10% line:58% size:67.5% community, there's possibly 23:11.033 --> 23:16.333 align:start position:10% line:58% size:70% going to be shooting. That's 23:11.700 --> 23:19.033 align:start position:10% line:58% size:67.5% going to happen in a school 23:13.733 --> 23:20.433 align:start position:10% line:58% size:67.5% drugs outside drugs inside. 23:16.333 --> 23:21.100 align:start position:10% line:58% size:62.5% You get the idea what I'm 23:19.033 --> 23:21.733 align:start position:10% line:58% size:65% saying So if you this is a 23:20.433 --> 23:23.766 align:start position:10% line:58% size:65% golden opportunity for the 23:21.100 --> 23:26.366 align:start position:10% line:58% size:65% communities to really bond 23:21.733 --> 23:27.000 align:start position:10% line:58% size:57.5% together and talking to 23:23.766 --> 23:29.266 align:start position:10% line:58% size:75% parents. I'm talking the faith 23:26.366 --> 23:32.266 align:start position:10% line:58% size:65% community. I'm talking the 23:27.000 --> 23:33.366 align:start position:10% line:58% size:67.5% private sector, people, the 23:29.266 --> 23:36.300 align:start position:10% line:58% size:75% businesses, whatever, and come 23:32.266 --> 23:37.400 align:start position:10% line:58% size:75% up with a way to publicize how 23:33.366 --> 23:38.100 align:start position:10% line:58% size:77.5% they can get information to us. 23:36.300 --> 23:38.800 align:start position:10% line:58% size:77.5% We have a statewide tip line is 23:37.400 --> 23:41.133 align:start position:10% line:58% size:72.5% called a stop. Tip line is in 23:38.100 --> 23:44.300 align:start position:10% line:58% size:72.5% partnership with the Kentucky 23:38.800 --> 23:45.000 align:start position:10% line:58% size:67.5% Office of Homeland Security 23:41.133 --> 23:47.900 align:start position:10% line:58% size:75% and Kentucky Center for School 23:44.300 --> 23:48.566 align:start position:10% line:58% size:72.5% Safety. It runs 24 7. You can 23:45.000 --> 23:49.300 align:start position:10% line:58% size:75% text messaging can cure COVID. 23:47.900 --> 23:51.366 align:start position:10% line:58% size:67.5% You email or you can make a 23:48.566 --> 23:53.666 align:start position:10% line:58% size:77.5% phone call and there's somebody 23:49.300 --> 23:55.700 align:start position:10% line:58% size:70% there. 24 7 and will receive 23:51.366 --> 23:58.433 align:start position:10% line:58% size:67.5% the call. So if something's 23:53.666 --> 23:59.133 align:start position:10% line:58% size:65% being lake down, here's an 23:55.700 --> 23:59.766 align:start position:10% line:58% size:67.5% obvious way to do this. Now 23:58.433 --> 24:03.133 align:start position:10% line:58% size:75% we run into a public relations 23:59.133 --> 24:04.000 align:start position:10% line:58% size:62.5% issue with this with this 23:59.766 --> 24:04.700 align:start position:10% line:58% size:70% concerns. Not enough. People 24:03.133 --> 24:06.966 align:start position:10% line:58% size:75% know that number. And so we're 24:04.000 --> 24:07.633 align:start position:10% line:58% size:75% thinking about possibly having 24:04.700 --> 24:08.666 align:start position:10% line:58% size:77.5% a major campaign with community 24:06.966 --> 24:10.300 align:start position:10% line:58% size:67.5% folks saying, OK, let's get 24:07.633 --> 24:15.300 align:start position:10% line:58% size:70% these numbers out, maybe and 24:08.666 --> 24:16.233 align:start position:10% line:58% size:72.5% restaurants with these little 24:10.300 --> 24:16.933 align:start position:10% line:58% size:75% messages that you have on your 24:15.300 --> 24:17.666 align:start position:10% line:58% size:55% tables. Maybe a poster 24:16.233 --> 24:18.366 align:start position:10% line:58% size:75% Kroger's, maybe something over 24:16.933 --> 24:21.233 align:start position:10% line:58% size:77.5% watering something over here at 24:17.666 --> 24:22.066 align:start position:10% line:58% size:75% the Civic Center. Whatever the 24:18.366 --> 24:22.733 align:start position:10% line:58% size:77.5% case may be saturate the market 24:21.233 --> 24:24.033 align:start position:10% line:58% size:75% with that tip line, that would 24:22.066 --> 24:26.100 align:start position:10% line:58% size:70% be one possible piece to the 24:22.733 --> 24:28.000 align:start position:10% line:58% size:55% puzzle of getting that 24:24.033 --> 24:30.066 align:start position:10% line:58% size:75% information to us. But we need 24:26.100 --> 24:30.766 align:start position:10% line:58% size:75% to have people to step forward 24:28.000 --> 24:32.500 align:start position:10% line:58% size:67.5% and let us know what you're 24:30.066 --> 24:33.100 align:start position:10% line:58% size:72.5% hearing and especially social 24:30.766 --> 24:35.166 align:start position:10% line:58% size:75% media. Excuse me. I mean, this 24:32.500 --> 24:37.100 align:start position:10% line:58% size:60% is by which a lot of the 24:33.100 --> 24:38.966 align:start position:10% line:58% size:42.5% communication is. 24:35.166 --> 24:39.633 align:start position:10% line:58% size:50% >> Is is learned and 24:37.100 --> 24:40.266 align:start position:10% line:58% size:75% transmitted. And so if you see 24:38.966 --> 24:42.800 align:start position:10% line:58% size:62.5% something, say something, 24:39.633 --> 24:43.700 align:start position:10% line:58% size:62.5% Mister Wilcox, right? And 24:40.266 --> 24:44.533 align:start position:10% line:58% size:60% there's nothing that's 2 24:42.800 --> 24:46.800 align:start position:10% line:58% size:62.5% smaller in consequential. 24:43.700 --> 24:47.533 align:start position:10% line:58% size:77.5% And it doesn't mean that you're 24:44.533 --> 24:48.266 align:start position:10% line:58% size:75% indicting someone. You're just 24:46.800 --> 24:50.666 align:start position:10% line:58% size:77.5% alerting authorities that, hey, 24:47.533 --> 24:51.366 align:start position:10% line:58% size:77.5% you might want to keep our eyes 24:48.266 --> 24:51.966 align:start position:10% line:58% size:70% on this. Is that the correct 24:50.666 --> 24:54.566 align:start position:10% line:58% size:75% way to look at the absolutely. 24:51.366 --> 24:55.600 align:start position:10% line:58% size:57.5% And you know, we saw it 24:51.966 --> 24:58.566 align:start position:10% line:58% size:77.5% whenever we have a tragedy like 24:54.566 --> 24:59.300 align:start position:10% line:58% size:77.5% this. We see an uptick of that. 24:55.600 --> 25:00.066 align:start position:10% line:58% size:65% >> You know, when I when I 24:58.566 --> 25:02.300 align:start position:10% line:58% size:77.5% start as right after Columbine, 24:59.300 --> 25:02.933 align:start position:10% line:58% size:75% we've got a lot of information 25:00.066 --> 25:03.666 align:start position:10% line:58% size:72.5% from the community. We've got 25:02.300 --> 25:04.300 align:start position:10% line:58% size:62.5% information from parents. 25:02.933 --> 25:05.400 align:start position:10% line:58% size:77.5% We've got information of what I 25:03.666 --> 25:09.333 align:start position:10% line:58% size:62.5% feel like, you know, this 25:04.300 --> 25:10.066 align:start position:10% line:58% size:67.5% students acting this way or 25:05.400 --> 25:12.400 align:start position:10% line:58% size:75% that way. And then it suddenly 25:09.333 --> 25:13.100 align:start position:10% line:58% size:77.5% Wayne's off, you know, and that 25:10.066 --> 25:14.433 align:start position:10% line:58% size:70% same thing happen with more. 25:12.400 --> 25:15.100 align:start position:10% line:58% size:72.5% So we were very, very focused 25:13.100 --> 25:15.800 align:start position:10% line:58% size:72.5% on school safety. And then it 25:14.433 --> 25:17.333 align:start position:10% line:58% size:70% starts to wane off. And this 25:15.100 --> 25:18.900 align:start position:10% line:58% size:72.5% is one of the things and this 25:15.800 --> 25:20.733 align:start position:10% line:58% size:62.5% is why it's so important. 25:17.333 --> 25:22.900 align:start position:10% line:58% size:67.5% Our offices in the school's 25:18.900 --> 25:23.533 align:start position:10% line:58% size:77.5% yearly or more. It's a constant 25:20.733 --> 25:24.100 align:start position:10% line:58% size:70% reminder that this has to be 25:22.900 --> 25:24.766 align:start position:10% line:58% size:65% done. This has to get out. 25:23.533 --> 25:28.100 align:start position:10% line:58% size:55% So yeah, I could agree 25:24.100 --> 25:29.600 align:start position:10% line:58% size:70% completely with you on that. 25:24.766 --> 25:30.233 align:start position:10% line:58% size:75% But I if I could have listened 25:28.100 --> 25:30.866 align:start position:10% line:58% size:67.5% to that. I get the messages 25:29.600 --> 25:33.700 align:start position:10% line:58% size:62.5% that are sent to the home 25:30.233 --> 25:35.700 align:start position:10% line:58% size:65% office, Homeland Security. 25:30.866 --> 25:36.833 align:start position:10% line:58% size:67.5% So I get to see what's been 25:33.700 --> 25:37.800 align:start position:10% line:58% size:70% coming in.
