While the Texas legislation, HB3 outlines specific requirements and deadlines for school districts to beef up security, schools wait for funds to trickle in. In a statement to NBC 5, TEA said, 'The annual School Safety Allotment will flow to school systems as it has in the past through the Foundation School Program'. For IDEA Public Schools Tarrant County, the first day of school kicked off Monday, with each campus greeted by teachers and armed security officers. 'This will be the first year that we will have armed security officers on any of our campuses throughout the entirety of a school day,' Layne Fisher said.
