Tennessee business owner Paul Shamiyeh wants to give parents peace of mind and emergency officials more time to respond to acts of school violence. This is why his business, Energy Control Consultants, Inc. has installed 3M™ Safety and Security Window Film on schools and universities throughout eastern Tennessee.
Across the country, school districts are working to increase the security of their entryways, including windows and doors, to give occupants time to take cover and local law enforcement time to respond in the event there is an active shooter or some other form of violence.
In today’s volatile landscape where school shootings are unceasingly making headlines, many school officials are looking for ways to increase safety and security on their own campuses. The Houston Independent School District is no exception. As the largest school district in Texas and the seventh largest in the United States, it serves about 209,000 students across 280 campuses.
