~ KEYNOTE ~
Dave Budz, FBI Mass Gatherings Security Detail
Keeping with the overall mission of protecting our schools, a briefing of the Parkland School Shooting is provided to any district that would like this. The brief is an after-action forum to discuss the difficult yet valuable lessons learned from this school attack. The briefing utilizes a healthy discussion format similar to a traditional law enforcement tabletop exercise (TTX) and includes reviews of real-life situations. Participants gain critical knowledge regarding best practices and receive insightful answers to address concerns in their respective school district.
The briefing format can include any venue, within the school district, to include individual/multiple school districts, administrators, staff, board members, local first responders, SROs, and related community partners. Discussion during these briefings centers on three critical areas:
- How are the district and law enforcement identifying and processing internal threats among the student population?
- How is the district hardening its physical layout against outside threats attempting to gain entry into the school?
- If the killer gains entry, is the school properly trained to limit casualties?
