Voting safety concerns

Dear
school committee members,
I know I
have in the past advocate for voting to take at the schools, specifically at
Ford School. While I still do support voting at the schools, in light of recent
mass shootings I have retooled my position.
Although
I realize in the past you have managed to coincide voting days for the general
elections and whenever possible other voting days with teacher Personal
Development Days with election ones so that students would not be present.
However given the number of primary and special election days, this is not
always possible.
Voting
at Sisson Elementary in the last primary caused me to contemplate the enormous
security risks at stake. While I do not know the answer, I strongly urge
everyone take into consideration what’s at stake and do a risk vs. reward
assessment.
Hopefully
since many of you are smarter and more educated than me, someone will be able
to come up with a solution that addresses the concerns raised.
Sincerely,
Stan
