(The City of El Centro to meet with local schools)...It is in response to the ongoing threats of violence.

The city is responding to a surge in concerns from parents and community members over recent threats of violence reported at several local school campuses. El Centro Mayor Sylvia Marroquin says the safety and well-being of students, staff and the broader community remain a top priority for the city. To address the concerns pro-actively, the City of El Centro will convene a series of meetings with school district officials and City first responders. The goal is to review and reinforce the existing safety protocols, identify any potential deficiencies, and ensure seamless communication between all parties involved. By revisiting their coordinated response plan, they aim to guarantee the continued security of the school environments and adapt to any evolving challenges.
