School Security Measures for Safe Learning Environments

School Security Measures for Safe Learning Environments CNN reports that there were 23 school shootings in the first five months of 2018 .   In each of these incidents, at least one person was shot excluding the gunman.   Seeing this fact rattled me to my core.   I thought about my children, how they were once in schools similar to Parkland and Sandy Hook and Santa Fe.   I had to understand how schools were trying to combat this.   America’s mass shooting incidence rate has many layered causes, so I wanted to look specifically at the schools. We want our schools to have the security of our prisons without feeling or looking like prisons.   Learning environments must be just that—learning environments.   By focusing on CPTED—crime prevention through environmental design—school entrance design and visitor and staff management, schools can achieve that careful yet attainable balance.           ...

Picking up Mariela from CPS office

Image
Today is November 4, 2008.    At 11:30 a.m  Mariela's custody hearing was canceled and reset for two weeks from today. We were very sad and disappointed for Mariela. We wanted to get her to a home where she can start bonding. Brett and our attorney set to work to arrange an emergency hearing.  They were successful in their efforts.    At 4:50 pm our hearing was heard.  We were awarded temporary custody of Mariela Ruby Arismendez, that evening at 5:15 p.m  Mariela was released from her current foster home and put in our care. It's going to be an interesting year to say the least. I hope the Lord will help and sustain me as much as I believed he will. We are happy that this first hearing is over and we can shower her with love. On ovember 5, 2008 at 4 :30 pm, Brett and I  picked up Mariela at the CPS office. I will never forget the way I felt on the way to their office.  It made me think of the dread I felt the day I was driving to ...

Little Kids And Their Words

Cute things my little boys said today: 9/12/2015 I'm very busy getting my nursing degree.  I want to write down one thing each that my kids say or do every day.  I don't want to forget these precious years even though I'm so busy. Today Ryan asked Brett, "Dad, the next time you go on a spy mission, can I go with you?"  Then he said, "Austin, I've been to Dad's spy shack, and seen all his guns up stairs."  He and Eathyn really think Brett's a spy.  He's their super hero.  Ryan is so sweet to me.  He treats me like I'm a precious jewel.   Eathyn and Ryan repeat themselves like little broken records, we are all trying to get them to stop. Today, Brett and I started our day off at the gym. We did legs today.  We hate leg day!!! We took Eathyn and Ryan with us.  Saturdays are fun at the gym.  The rock wall is open.  The two of them have so much fun together. After we left the gym Brett and I took the boys to th...
