Summary
Mat-Su School District in Alaska proposes arming trained staff with concealed handguns to enhance security, but faces a $28 million budget shortfall. The plan, which could make it the first district in Alaska to implement such a program, is subject to changes and approval later this year. Despite mixed public opinion, the board is determined to explore grants to avoid tax hikes and keep costs at zero. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
