Poll: Georgia Parents Call for Stricter School Safety Measures Following Deadly Shooting
In the aftermath of a deadly school shooting at Apalachee High School in Northeast Georgia early this month that left four people dead and nine others wounded, a new poll reveals widespread support for increased mental health services, school safety reforms and holding students and parents accountable for threats of violence. Conducted by the Republican-aligned Cygnal polling firm, the survey of 518 Georgia parents of K-12 students sheds light on the priorities of families as the state legislature prepares to tackle gun safety policies next year.
