insanity. do they have their own fire department too? it makes no sense.

In 1957, the Dade County Education Commission acknowledged “security” as an integral component of District operations and approved the position of Security Assistant… In 1966, the job responsibility of the SA was changed to keep pace with the demanding and dynamic social changes of the mid 1960’s [and] the School Board authorized the Security Services Department… [ later renamed to mdsp ]
if that’s not code, i don’t know what is. ( and i didn’t put security in quotes, that’s on them )
here’s an ummm completely unrelated timeline:
In a suit against the Dade County School Board, black students were finally admitted into the school in 1959, bringing many changes to the once white-only school. In the fall, fewer than a dozen white students were enrolled and by Christmas, it was an all-black school.
There were hundreds, if not thousands of student shuffles between 1955 and 1960. Dade County School officially did not officially declare the area’s schools desegregated until 1963.
