Friedson Urges Permanent Officers at Every MCPS High School
FriedsonApr 27, 2026
Councilmember Andrew Friedson has formally requested that County Executive Elrich, Montgomery County Police Chief Marc Yamada, Board of Education President Grace Rivera-Oven, and Superintendent Thomas Taylor collaborate on a school safety strategy. The plan would place a permanent on-site officer at every public high school and assign an additional officer to each school cluster to support middle and elementary schools. The request follows major recent events in county schools and an April 21, 2026 School Safety Briefing held at the County Council.
