​Why A Referendum?

During the 2019 Indiana Legislative Session, lawmakers passed Senate Bill 127 requiring a property tax referendum to fund the following school safety initiatives:

​

• Employ School Resource Officers (SRO’s)

• Conduct Threat Assessments

• Update School Safety Plans

• Develop or Update School Emergency Response Systems

• Purchase Equipment to Improve Safety of Building Grounds or Buses

• Establish a School Safety Office

• Improve the Safety of a School Building

• Implement Programs Addressing 

  • Mental Illness

  • Addiction

  • Anger Management

  • Bullying

  • School Violence Prevention

• Professional Development for Staff

​

The success of the NAFC School Safety Referendum will provide immediate funding for services desperately needed to enhance the safety of all our NAFC Schools.
