Safe school aides eyed for major South Carolina districts
District officials propose safety aides for larger high schools like North Augusta with two staffers and smaller schools such as Ridge Spring Monetta with one. Principals and resource officers would coordinate with the new aides reinforced by video surveillance and visible hall monitoring to deter unauthorized access. Students voiced support, noting aides may feel safer and less intimidated than police presence, while still ensuring help is available when needed.
