Tell Us: School Security

Does Port Washington need more high tech security? More paid guards?

In the wake of the Newtown tragedy, many Port Washington parents have expressed concerns about school security.

The Port Washington School District is collaborating with Port Washington and Sands Point police, which this week increased its presence around the schools. It is also encouraging parents to attend the Jan. 8 school board meeting to share concerns.

Which leads to the questions: how much more would you like to see in terms of security? More high tech security? More paid guards?
