When it comes to Building for God Community Foundation Partner, Safe and Sound Schools, 2018 has proven to be another successful year! In the past few months their events have reached thousands of people, delivering their unique message of safety in our schools. Some of these events include:
Ivymount School for students with special needs – site visit and consultation
Marriotts Ridge High School, Howard County – Safe and Sound Youth Council presentation and a community night
DHI Security Conference, Baltimore
Baltimore County Public Schools School Safety Conference
Federal Emergency Management Association PrepTalk, available online
School Safety webinar, hosted by Raptor Technologies

Curious about what some of what Safe and Sound Schools is sharing? They recently released the State of School Safety Report (www.safeandsoundschools.org/research) and published Parents for Safe Schools web page (www.safeandsoundschools.org/resources/parent-resources/).
