MHPS continues focus on school safety with upgrades


School safety continues to be a top priority at Mountain Home Public Schools (MHPS) with new upgrades and training planned for the new year.
MHPS officials reported to the school board last week on recent campus safety improvements, including the installation of shatter-resistant security laminate on foyer windows at all campuses.




MHPS Safety & Security Coordinator Eddie Helmert says it has been a very good start to the year.

The project was funded through a state security grant. The laminate strengthens the glass, making it shatter-resistant.

Helmert also had one announcement to make, with special plans to give the students at Pinkston Middle School a chance to be a part.

Helmert also reported during the meeting that they have started district-wide lockdown drills, which have been going well.

The board reviewed the update as part of its ongoing efforts to monitor and enhance safety measures for students and staff across the district.
