Worthington school district setting example in fight against terror

Channel 10 News had the story last night...  Central Ohio School Setting Example in Fight Against Terror  and that central Ohio school district is the Worthington City School District. Channel 10 News has an article and video in the link that tell the story of how Worthington schools worked with the Department of Homeland Security to become the leaders in preparation for a terrorist act. 

" The U.S. Department of Homeland Security calls having improvised explosive devices or bombs the No. 1 terrorist act.  In the past, schools were less prepared for handling those types of events."

According to the Channel 10 News article and video the work done by Worthington Schools along with the Department of Homeland Security will serve to guide other Ohio communities in making their school buildings safer for children. 

Worthington Schools

The Worthington City School District in northern Franklin County serves the City of Worthington, the Village of Riverlea and a portion of the City of Columbus as well as homes in unincorporated areas (townships.)  The school district boundaries were in place before much of northern Franklin County was developed or annexed into cities.   Worthington was established in 1803. 

It looks as if the school pictured in the Channel 10 News video is Kilbourne Middle School.  The photos here are of Kilbourne Middle School, on E. Dublin Granville Rd. last November.  This Worthington middle school was the high school in Worthington before the school on W. Dublin Granville Road was built.  The school on W. Dublin Granville Road is now named Thomas Worthington High School.  The second high school in the Worthington school distirict is Thomas Kilbourne High School.  The school disctrict is served by a third high school, the Linworth Alternative Program as well. Kilbourne Middle School is one of four middle schools in the Worthington.  The other middle  schools in the Worthington City School District are Worthingway, McCord and the Phoenix School.
