“Before Columbine, SWAT never practiced for this type of event”, School and Law enforcement were lacking plans.<\/p>\n
What Trends are evident:<\/p>\n
Many telltale signs were missed by many<\/p>\n
Police are responding within 5 minutes<\/p>\n
Multiple firearms are present<\/p>\n
4 out of 5 Criminals kill themselves<\/p>\n
Multiple Mag changes were required<\/p>\n
regardless of 10 or 30 rd<\/p>\n
Avg 160 Rounds fired (about 1 shot per 2 seconds)<\/p>\n
Compare to 1 second or less for a ‘C’ Class Shooter<\/p>\n
Some victims shot more than 2 times<\/p>\n
Survivors either played dead or exited the area<\/p>\n
Mental state is suspect in 5 out of 5 cases<\/p>\n
No guarantee an Officer on Site will deter<\/p>\n
In Maryland the new Gun Bill SB281 only has $25 million for school security.<\/p>\n
A new bill for 2018 has more funding for SRO and Building Security.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\nAbout $18,000 per school.\u00a0Yet basic MAN TRAP for entry and exit control is –\u00a0An automatic mantrap system can range from $15K (installed) to around $25K for that same system with tailgate monitoring. Pre-fabricated automatic door systems are priced about $75K to $100K installed.<\/p>\n
Using smaller school districts actual cost for security upgrades, since most schools were built before 1995, will cost $178 per pupil or 154 million dollars.\u00a0Hand-held Metal detectors are cheap insurance at $100 to $200. Walk through Systems start at $5,000<\/p>\n
Maryland Public School Statistics<\/p>\n
Maryland Public Schools: 1,424

These louvers perform two functions. A heat barrier from the sun.<\/p>\n
A protection cover. Simple to retrofit to schools. Beneficial for the environment.<\/p>\n
Savings in energy could cover the cost.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
ACTIVE SECURITY CONCEPTS<\/strong><\/p>\nThese technology components can be used to enhance building security:<\/p>\n
\u2022 Phones in every instructional and support area<\/p>\n
\u2022 Building-wide all-call system that can be heard throughout the school and on playing fields<\/p>\n
\u2022 Motion or infrared detectors, which can be configured to conserve lighting costs<\/p>\n
\u2022 Smoke and heat detectors located throughout the building<\/p>\n
\u2022 Wiring for CCTV in all hallways, offices, classrooms and parking area<\/p>\n
\u2022 Access control cards that also can be used as identification cards.<\/p>\n
\u2022 Panic buttons in all rooms<\/p>\n
\u2022 Mechanized lock-down doors that are supported by back-up power source<\/p>\n
\u2022 Securable lobby area<\/p>\n
\u2022 Sound-detection system<\/p>\n
\u2022 Electronic student-identification system<\/p>\n
PASSIVE Concepts<\/strong><\/p>\nTypes of Building Materials<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\u2022 Use durable wall surfaces that are easy to clean so graffiti can be removed<\/p>\n
\u2022 Incorporate pitched roofs that inhibit roof entry and are aesthetically pleasing<\/p>\n
\u2022 Limit size of windows: use multiple smaller windows rather than one large window<\/p>\n
\u2022 Use safety glass or glass bricks<\/p>\n
\u2022 Glaze or tint windows<\/p>\n
Building Layout<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n\u2022 Avoid blind spots, corners, and cub holes (inside or outside)<\/p>\n
\u2022 Ensure administrative and teacher preparation areas offer good visual contact with major circulation and gathering areas (i.e., corridors, cafeteria\/ gymnasium, bus drop-off, parking)<\/p>\n
\u2022 Develop spatial relationships with natural transitions from one location to another<\/p>\n
\u2022 Design restrooms that balance the need for privacy with the ability to supervise<\/p>\n
\u2022 Locate areas likely to have significant after-school community use close to parking areas<\/p>\n
\u2022 Ensure these areas can be closed off from the rest of the building<\/p>\n
\u2022 Provide for natural integration of students and staff<\/p>\n
\u2022 Design external exits from offices<\/p>\n
\u2022 Provide ability to partition unused portions of the building<\/p>\n
\u2022 Avoid easy access to roofs<\/p>\n
Vehicular and Pedestrian Traffic<\/span><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\u2022 Separate bus drop-off area from other vehicular traffic<\/p>\n
\u2022 Separate staff and community parking areas<\/p>\n
\u2022 Separate student pedestrian traffic flow<\/p>\n
\u2022 Require visitor parking passes, student parking stickers, and staff stickers for ID<\/p>\n
\u2022 Use Bollards to keep vehicles from penetrating the building<\/p>\n
\u2022 Protect playgrounds from vehicular traffic and parking<\/p>\n
Landscaping, Playing and Practice Fields, Site, and Lighting<\/span><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\u2022 Use high trees and low bushes (less than three feet high) to deter hiding<\/p>\n
\u2022 Use aesthetically pleasing fencing around the perimeter of the building<\/p>\n
\u2022 Place some buildings or a tree buffer along the perimeter of the property to avoid extensive fencing, where feasible<\/p>\n
\u2022 Add non-intrusive lighting to all areas and emergency lighting\/power in hallways, stairwells, and classrooms<\/p>\n
\u2022 Provide security lighting around the building and parking lots with photocell timer (on\/off capacity)<\/p>\n
\u2022 Recess building on site if possible to avoid vehicular and pedestrian conflicts<\/p>\n
