Tomorrow's the day!
Tomorrow is the day! On Monday the Sandy Hook Advisory
Commission will release their recommendations for school safety. These
recommendations will be sent to Gov. Malloy of Connecticut. This commission was
put together to prevent another shooting from happening and to create a better protocol
for school safety.
Team 26 on a mission
This video showcases Team 26! This team of bicyclists rode
from Newtown, CT to Washington D.C. This team of people are heading to
Washington D.C to protest for stricter gun control laws. This is an
inspirational group of people, inspiring people to take a stand on gun control.

One step at a time
This is a new bill that was just passed a week ago! This
bill helps first responders and anyone affected by the SHS tragedy to take time
off from work in order to deal with what happen, being fully compensated. This bill is superb and helps
everyone in need!
G.I. Teacher?
This link is very interesting! Many people
are suggesting giving teachers armed weapons for protection in case of an
emergency. This article provides a counterargument to this idea, believing this
isn’t the answer. Will schools be safer with armed teachers or is this initiative
leading us one step closer to another disaster?
