School safety in wake of Parkersburg shooting Posted By: Ben Butler June 26, 2009 @ 4:05 am Today's Local News Tweet Share Email The shooting death of a prominent high school football coach has gained state and national attention, and might have some wondering what precautions exist to prevent such a tragedy in Washington. High school principal Shane Ehresman says the public has limited access to the building. Eheresman says they also keep in close contact with law enforcement and sometimes request police presence at extra-curricular activities. Other school district facilities have similar policies in place. Superintendent Dave Sextro says they can’t go into too much detail about their emergency procedures, without jeopardizing their effectiveness.
