After the Newton, Conn. school shooting, things have change around our school.  Quite recently the school districts have been taking new security measures by closing and locking all of the gates as well as locking all of the doors to the classrooms. This is a secure system, but are these measures too much?

Johnny Thomas (8) had this to say, “The new security has made it hard sometimes to get back into the classroom after going to do something.” Now there’s one student who thinks the new security has made things difficult but others agree with this view.

Manuel Moke (8) agrees with the new measures by saying, “I agree with the new security measures because it could help prevent what happened in Connecticut.”

There are arguments over the new security but they are here to stay and are here to protect you.  Weigh in on this discussion by posting a comment.
