Local schools fail to submit school safety plans, violate state law

School shooting across the country and here at home are leading to increased training on how to handle an active shooter in a school.

Precious seconds depend on good safety plans.

That's why the Ohio attorney general's office manages an online database where any law enforcement agency can pull up a school floor plan and safety plan at a moment's notice.

It's the law.

In 2007 the Ohio legislature required all schools to submit  plans to the state -- and update them every three years.

So why are some schools dragging their feet?

We found all five Beachwood city schools among 157 Ohio schools that haven't submitted plans in the last three years.

A filing oversight, says the superintendent, who maintains that the district has a very strong safety plan.

But perhaps of most concern to the attorney general, out of more than 4,100 schools in the state, 23 have never submitted a safety plan.

On the list: all five schools in the Green school district.

The district blames a recent change in leadership and says it's working with local law enforcement on its safety plan, which it calls a work in progress.

The district points to half a million dollars in recent security improvements, including cameras and security vestibules.
