In the wake of recent tragic events across the nation, schools everywhere are re-evaluating what it means to create a safe learning environment. One of Greenville’s own, John Paul II Catholic High School (JPII), has taken proactive steps to ensure the protection of its students, faculty, and visitors. Following the devastating shooting at a Catholic school in Minneapolis, JPII has partnered with a professional private security company to strengthen its on-campus safety measures, reaffirming what parents and educators value most: that every student deserves to feel secure at school.
Principal Katie Stanley shared that the decision to bring in professional security was made in direct response to the Minnesota tragedy that left two people dead and several others injured. The heartbreaking event served as a sobering reminder that safety cannot be taken for granted and that preparedness and prevention save lives.
“We understand that conversations around school safety can raise questions and concerns,” Stanley said. “Please know that every step we take is guided by the belief that your child’s safety comes first.”
That belief that prevention is protection aligns closely with the mission of professional private security agencies across North Carolina who work quietly behind the scenes to keep communities, businesses, and schools safe.
