An 8-foot commercial fence is about $30/ft. The perimeter of Taft High School in Woodland Hills, CA is about 4,960 ft. That's $148,000 for a fence around the entire campus. When a school shooting threat posted on Instagram caused a panic on campus this week, students fled from the school and climbed over the fence. Shift to "single point of entry" not only forces students to line up outside to get it, it also slows down an evacuation. Most school shooters are current or former students who likely have the same physical abilities as the students at Taft High who easily scaled the fence. Taft High looks like an average sized campus which means that installing an 8-foot commercial fence around all 130,000 schools in the US would be around $19.2 billion. If students can easily climb over the fence to leave the campus and a teenage school shooter can easily scale it to get onto the campus (or just walk through a gate if they are student), wouldn't it be better to spend $19.2B tax dollars on something actually related to education?

It's important to use a system thinking ecosystem approach to these challenges.

Great work being done by Trust for Public Land Cooling the urban environment is good for people, animals and the planet
We’re thrilled to be featured in The Washington Post for our work transforming schoolyards into cooler, greener spaces: https://wapo.st/3TrQs2p #CommunitySchoolyards are more than play spaces—they reduce heat risks, enhance student health, support learning, and provide essential park space for communities. As temperatures rise, our efforts to replace asphalt with trees, shade structures, and nature-rich play areas is more urgent than ever—and our work isn’t complete until every schoolyard offers these vital benefits.

🌳 **How Trust for Public Land Is Leading the Fight Against Heat Islands** 🌳 Climate change is making our cities hotter, and no place feels the impact more than our schools. That's why schools across the U.S. are transforming their playgrounds into green spaces. Projects to plant trees, install shade structures, and remove asphalt are becoming urgent. This isn't just about making schoolyards more inviting – it's about protecting our children from the extreme heat that can turn asphalt surfaces into dangerous Trust for Public Land is leading g this work. We have renovated more than 300 school playgrounds in 23 states, focusing on turning asphalt jungles into green spaces for children to play safely. In low-income urban neighborhoods, where trees are scarce and temperatures soar, the work is critical. By planting trees and reducing pavement, Trust for Public Land is helping to mitigate the urban heat island effect – where concrete and asphalt absorb and amplify heat. 🌿 The impact goes beyond aesthetics*– these green schoolyards also improve community well-being, reduce stormwater runoff, and enhance outdoor learning spaces. 👉 What do you think about the shift towards greener schoolyards? #ClimateAction #UrbanGreening #TrustForPublicLand #HeatIslands #SchoolTransformation #ClimateResilience

It took two days for Parchment to transfer my transcript from UH Park or Central to Lone Star College using digital method. It took few days or about one week for Parchment to transfer my transcript from UH-Down to Lone Star College using digital method. It is about two weeks for UH-Downtown to make transcript ready so I can go and pick it up using in person method and it is still not ready. I am using digital method to burn my body when I die in India because it is a lot cheaper there than USA. It was $1,200 before covid-19 and $2,400 after covid-19 because of increase in wood price and labor cost and etc.
