ATLANTA — Gov. Brian Kemp provided an outline Wednesday of the various school safety programs, trainings and review processes that are in place in the wake of the horrific killing of 19 students and two teachers at an elementary school in Uvalde, Texas.

The shooting at Robb Elementary School is the second deadliest on record in the United States, a searing tragedy in which most of the victims were grade school children.

In Georgia, Gov. Kemp issued a rundown of state agencies' various efforts to keep schools safe. The governor's successful push earlier this year to relax Georgia's gun carry laws will likely face renewed scrutiny following the events in Texas. 

One of the governor's most concrete plans calls for Georgia Emergency Management & Homeland Security (GEMA) to create Behavioral Threat Assessment Teams to be deployed throughout the state and "respond to threats or concerning behavior that may be considered a pathway to violence" as well as "provide assistance and guidance to local schools, systems, and communities in an effort to mitigate potential threats to life."

“As the parents of three daughters – including one who is a first-grade teacher – Marty and I join all Georgians in mourning yesterday’s senseless targeting of school children in Texas,” Kemp said in a statement. “Focusing on school safety and improving Georgia’s mental health system are two issues that we tackled immediately upon taking office in 2019."

The governor added that he wanted to "reassure Georgia families today that we have worked closely with the General Assembly and state agencies to ensure our students and educators have secure learning environments."

The rundown of state efforts includes law enforcement presence - including eight Homeland Security Coordinators around the state "whose primary function is to assist schools and local law enforcement with school safety," several training programs and a number of safety reviews. Kemp also touted nearly $70 million allocated in 2019 - roughly $30,000 per school in Georgia - for school security measures and smaller amounts that have been dedicated to student mental health.

According to Kemp, 300 school resource officers will also be trained this year by the Georgia Public Safety Training Center, with the center currently "reviewing basic SRO curriculum considering recent events in Uvalde, Texas."

"Any necessary protocol updates will be included in the next SRO class and will continue in the future," a release from the governor said.

The release listed the following programs and policies GEMA as among those the state is utilizing to ensure school safety:
