Township Residents Speak Out On Giving Teachers Guns, Overall Safety

Editor’s Note: In light of the vigorous discussion about guns in schools and school safety in general following the Feb. 14 mass shooting at a Florida high school, we became curious about the opinions of township residents – especially high school students – about those topics.

We sent Arnav Tolat, our chief Franklin High School correspondent, to speak with his peers about the subject, and also asked some township officials how they felt about Pres. Donald Trump’s proposal to allow school teachers to carry concealed weapons.
