'If I go to [the school] and I want to be an active shooter, I'm going in knowing I have reduced sightlines,' the Superintendent said.
Students of Fruitport High School in western Michigan will be returning on September 3 to a drastically different high school. The building is going under $48 million worth of renovations and new construction. Among the new additions? Curved hallways and subtle hiding places designed to slow down a potential mass shooter.
"Our ask is that our community be very understanding, keep the eyes on the prize because when our high school is done it's going be magnificent," he added.But while it's always exciting to see what's changed in a newly renovated building, it's the philosophy behind the redesign that's getting all the attention. The school district hopes that the changes to Fruitport High will make things more difficult for a potential shooter.
"This building will be the safest, most secure building in the state of Michigan when it opens," Szymoniak told KCEN.
