HARRISBURG, Pa. (WHTM) — The tragedy in Parkland, Florida has generated a lot of conversation about safety in schools across the nation and in Central Pennsylvania.
Dr. Eric Waters is a former vice principal in Harrisburg. He says that he had a long talk with his 12-year-old daughter about the incident.
“I want her to be happy and involve herself in athletics and in academics,” said Waters, “But there is another side that exists, and that is keeping it as real as real can get.” Waters said they discussed what to do during different scenarios if there was an active shooting in her school.”
John Sancenito is a security expert with Information Network Associates. He says there is no need to wait for lawmakers at any level to make changes in law.
