What does it take to create schools where students feel safe, supported, and known?

In this episode of The Truth About Ed, Dr. Jessica Betz sits down with Michigan State Police Trooper Thomas Kinnunen to discuss school safety, relationship-building, leadership, and the critical role trusted adults play in the lives of young people.

This conversation goes beyond security measures—it’s about connection, community, and the people who make a lasting difference in our schools.
