A safe school is a great school!
Our school is blessed to have David Simpson serving as our Armed Security Officer, helping ensure a safe and secure environment for our students, staff, and families each day. As a retired State Police officer, Officer Dave brings a wealth of law enforcement experience, along with a strong commitment to safety and professionalism. His extensive training, calm demeanor, and keen awareness make him an invaluable presence to our school. Beyond security, he is approachable and caring—building positive relationships with students while remaining focused on their well-being. We are grateful for his dedication and the peace of mind he provides as we partner together to keep our school safe.
