This week we join school districts across the nation in highlighting America's Safe Schools Week. Here at Blue Valley, it takes everyone to create a culture of safety and inclusiveness. Blue Valley's campus police, school resource officers, event security, and safety and security staff play a major role in that.
Hear from Chlo-Ann Rizzo - campus police captain, Nate Schmidt - Blue Valley High campus officer, Anthony Garcia - Blue Valley Northwest campus officer, Trevor Burgess - Blue Valley High SRO, and Dave Reindl - elementary campus police officer on what school safety means to them.
