However, Patrol plans WILL CONTINUE in perimeter and neighborhood patrols. The foundation noted that it will seek to have similar citywide patrols throughout Nashville schools by mid school year.
The foundation STOPNOW Patrols, modeled after the "Guardian Angels," anticrime community policing group organized in NYC in the 1980's, patrol school perimeters to prevent safety incidents from reaching school campuses; while also providing extra encouragement and support for returning students. Team volunteers undergo foundational training prior to the start of the academic year. Team members are cleared through background checks & are trained in situational awareness and basic intervention techniques...
The Uvalde Foundation For Kids also has a developing on campus patrol program in addition to its school neighborhood patrols.
