An Introduction to Partner Alliance for Safer Schools (PASS)- Part 1

Alex & Ivy explore school safety beyond the usual headlines, focusing on the work of the Partner Alliance for Safer Schools (PASS). Founded in 2014, PASS brings together educators, security professionals, law enforcement, and architects to develop comprehensive, adaptable safety guidelines for K-12 schools. Their tiered security framework allows schools to implement safety measures based on their unique needs and budgets, covering physical security, emergency planning, mental health, and school climate. PASS provides practical steps, funding guidance, and training resources to help schools navigate implementation challenges. Ultimately, the discussion reinforces that school safety is a shared responsibility, urging listeners to explore PASS resources and get involved in making schools safer.
