In a shocking turn of events, a recent school safety audit in Jeffco Public Schools revealed a disturbing number of imminent threats on student accounts, including a "hit list" with 15 names. The audit, conducted by the company Gaggle, was never made public before the Evergreen High School shooting, leaving parents and the community reeling with questions about the district's handling of the information.
This episode delves into the details of the audit and the concerns surrounding its release. A parent who received the audit through a public records request shares their thoughts on the district's decision to keep the report under wraps, and a local father who has been advocating for school safety discusses the importance of transparency in the wake of the shooting.

The discussion highlights the need for accountability and action in ensuring the safety and well-being of students. A local father shares his experience with the court system and the devastating outcome of the social worker's sentencing, while a judge's comments on the importance of including all students, including those with different beliefs, are also explored.
