Texas implemented several safety mandates at public schools after the 2022 massacre at Robb Elementary in Uvalde.

Since then, school districts across the Rio Grande Valley announced several changes.

Channel 5 News met with the PSJA ISD Police Department to view the safety tools district police officers now have access to.

Among them are ballistic shields, laser weapons training, and a new facility designed to look like a school hallway with eight classrooms for training purposes.

The department’s 25 officers and 30 guardians will be training year-round.
