ACPS Hosts Narcan Training for Security Staff to Enhance School Safety
 
On Wednesday, August 14, Alexandria City Public Schools (ACPS) conducted a crucial Narcan training session for school security staff from 8:30 to 9:00 AM. This training provided the security team with essential skills to recognize and respond to opioid overdoses using Narcan, a life-saving medication that can reverse overdose effects. The initiative reflects ACPS's strong commitment to student and staff safety by ensuring that trained personnel are ready to act swiftly during emergencies, further reinforcing the district's proactive approach to protecting the well-being of its community. The training was led by Fredy Martinez, ACPS Substance Use Prevention Services Coordinator from the Department of Student Services, with support from team members Kate Dunlap and Sharon Lee. The event was a collaborative effort that included Jonathan Teumer, LCSW, Assistant Director of Clinical & Emergency Services, and Mara Jacobs, LPC, Team Leader of the Opioid Treatment Program from the City of Alexandria’s Department of Community and Human Services. Also contributing their expertise were Tiffany Johnson-Wiggins, Environmental Health Manager, and Medical Director Gloria Ivey Crowe. Through this collaboration, all ACPS security staff were trained and equipped with Naloxone, underscoring ACPS’s ongoing dedication to maintaining a safe and supportive school environment.
