Each day law enforcement and school districts across the United States are responsible for protecting our almost 133,000 schools and 63 million students, faculty, and staff. This 2-day, Leadership Forum is presented as a partnership between the FBI National Academy Associates (FBINAA), School Safety Advocacy Council, and the Kansas City Kansas Community College Police Department. The Forum will provide the attendees with the knowledge, skills, and resources needed to improve the overall security of their community's schools while developing coordinated plan for a crisis response.
On February 14, 2018, a former student entered Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland Florida, killed 17 innocent people and injured another 17 students. The 911 system received numerous calls that were routed to both the Broward County and Coral Springs Police dispatch centers. Chief Tony Pustizzi (Ret.), a 30-year veteran with the Coral Springs Police Department, along with members of his agency, arrived at the school within minutes. A complex law enforcement approach, including stopping the shooter and extracting victims from within the school, was initiated. Chief Pustizzi will discuss many of the issues that ensued in communication and leadership that he observed that day and the unique challenges he experienced from his perspective.
