Unarmed security officers to patrol at CD High winter events

Central Dauphin School Board voted to hire A.K.A. Security Services, a private security firm based in Lower Paxton, to work at sports games and dances held at Central Dauphin High School this winter.

The vote was 6-1, with Brian Faleshock casting the no vote. (Linda Dallago and Kristine Leber were absent.)

This was the first time since I resumed attending meetings last spring that I witnessed substantial discussion prior to a vote, and it was the first no vote cast in my presence during the same time period.

I applaud the board on these counts! (Now, let's see if the behind-the-doors executive sessions can become the exception rather than the rule.)
