Vulnerability assessments mandated by DOE
Kohala High School was one of the Big Island campuses that the DOE confirmed had completed its vulnerability assessment since 2017, and Principal Amy Stafford said it has helped both staff and students feel safer on campus.
“When someone comes to your school with a different set of eyes, and is able to see things differently than you do, as well as someone who sees all the schools in the state that can tell you where you stand in regards to safety, I think it brings an overall sense of relief,” Stafford said. “There’s relief in just knowing.”
