“I am very appreciative. As an LCSC Board Member, Henning School Board Member, and Deputy Sheriff, I am dedicated to school safety and a common-sense approach to faculty, staff, and student training,” said Reinbold. “My work with our local school districts throughout the region regarding active shooters has been extremely rewarding. I continue to be impressed with the quality and dedication of our school faculties, staff, and students.”
