The safety training event was planned months before the tragedy in Uvalde, Texas. However, the event has sparked renewed interest in the training.
DEER PARK, Texas -- A two-day workshop training was administered at Goose Creek ISD for parents in case a disaster takes place at school.
At a time when schools do see acts of violence, what happens after tragedy strikes is the main focus of Goose Creek ISD's safety training. "I really want to encourage parents to continue to have confidence in the public education system and all that we do to try to protect our young ones," said James Colbert, superintendent of the Harris County Department of Education."We feel like we are the champion for children so we are dedicated to that.
"Although it's painful and it's tough to watch and all the testimony from students and parents, it's absolutely necessary for us to make adjustments," continued Colbert.The Harris County Department of Education hopes those who attended the safety event will be able to handle emergency situations and also help train others in their own schools.
