Chaos Outside the Classroom: Lessons Learned from a Community Crisis
Saturday March 22, 2025 10:15am - 11:15am CDT
In the Spring of 2023, a gunman opened fire and killed eight people at the Allen Premium Outlets. The shooting occurred on a Saturday nowhere near a school campus, and none of the victims had a connection to Allen ISD. Despite the fact that this was a non-school event, learn how quickly a school district can become interwoven with a community crisis and how the Safe and Secure School Department and Communications Department worked together to handle the situation.

In the spring of 2023, the Carrollton-Farmers Branch Independent School District (CFBISD) faced a heartbreaking reality: the loss of three young lives to fentanyl overdoses.
