With Election Day just days away, schools across the country are preparing to open their doors to the public to operate as polling locations. While many schools regularly cancel classes for elections, there are also many schools that remain open for students and faculty. Any time the school is open to the public during school hours, extra precautions/preparations should be taken. However, given the high emotion around this particular election, school administrators, as well as school facility and security staff, county election officials, law enforcement and school resource officers need to be in sync and well prepared in the event of an unplanned event.
