Babson Park, FL – A Florida school is joining a program put on by the county sheriff’s office that allows staff to bring guns to work.
Webber International University announced a partnership with the Polk County Sheriff’s Department to expand the program that makes school staffers “special deputies” and allows them to carry guns, according to
Florida’s laws don’t allow someone to carry a gun onto school property unless they are a member of law enforcement. The Sentinel Program gets around that by having staffers made special deputies.
"We're gonna send the message to those people that you're not coming onto a campus being the only person on the campus with a firearm," Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd said Feb. 21. "Gun control is clearly in place on school campuses in the state of Florida. How did that work last week in Broward County?"
