Town Hall Meeting Focuses On School Safety In Mansfield ISD
MANSFIELD, Texas (CBSDFW.COM) - Officials say a town hall meeting Thursday evening in Mansfield is focused on opening a dialogue with parents and the community about school safety after a school shooting last month.
The meeting will feature a panel of community leaders, including the Mansfield ISD superintendent, the school board president, and Arlington's police chief.
A fight last month between students at Timberview High School led to gunfire that left four people wounded.
The school district says Timberview High School has had a greater law enforcement presence since the shooting, and officials have implemented more video surveillance and done spot checks of students using metal detectors.
