Another solution was proposed at Tuesday night’s Guam Education Board meeting. It comes after a recent break-in at Carbulido Elementary School in Barrigada.

"Maybe purchase a siren for each of the schools so that if somebody touches something at the school after hours that siren will go off and everybody around will know that somebody is at that school," GEB member Angel Sablan said. He got the idea from a teacher who had been impacted by the recent burglary at Carbullido Elementary.

Burglars broke into the office and classrooms at the central campus last week taking off with multiple items including music equipment.

"I’m sure that if we put public education out there that at the schools if you hear this siren – just like we have at the mayor’s office the alarm we use if there is a disaster coming," Sablan said. "If we put these sirens at the schools and it arms then there is a disaster and somebody’s breaking in."

Sablan ultimately hopes GDOE officials will come up with a plan and fast to protect their campuses, especially if classes are in session.  

"What are we doing about security? We need somebody besides a school volunteer to be at the front gate because right now you can just drive into any school," he said. "You can have a speargun, a bb gun, you can have anything as a deadly weapon and come into the principal’s office and gun everybody down."No word what the department plans to do just yet. 

But the sirens proposal? It works according to GEB Mayors' Council of Guam representative Melissa Savares.

Savares told the board and GDOE that whenever the alarm goes off at the school in the Astumbo community  - the neighborhood watch chats are alerted.
