In this episode, we sit down with Chief Buster Cushing, Chief of Police for Cherokee County Schools, and Officer Richie Rich for an in-depth conversation about school safety and the role of police presence in creating a secure environment for students and staff. They share insights into innovative tools like the Vector Alert System and Centegix, which are transforming the way schools respond to emergencies and communicate potential threats. We dive into the importance of building meaningful relationships between officers and students to foster trust, safety, and a sense of community within the schools. We also tackle one of the biggest debates in education today: Should schools ban cellphones during school hours? They share their perspectives on how cellphone policies can impact school safety and student engagement. If you’re passionate about student safety, community policing, or the future of our schools, this is a conversation you don’t want to miss!
