I'm thinking the reason they don't issue keys to everyone in the building is because the building becomes more compromised with each key. What do you think happens when someone loses their key? Should the school get every door rekeyed every time a key is lost? come on, THINK!

It’s only a matter of time before someone who shouldn’t be in a school gets in a school.
I approached this with my child’s school last year and was told that dcps schools try to be accessible to all. It doesn’t seem safe to me.
I recently discovered that at our DCPS school, the doors on the classrooms open out into the hallway and not open into the classroom. So if there is ever an intruder trying to enter the classroom, thee teacher and students could not barricade themselves against the intruder. There is a lock on the door, but if that were compromised, I guess that's it.
