DALLAS – In the wake of the alarming number of jaw-dropping school shootings across the country this year, Dallas Mavericks forward Dwight Powell was recently part of a group of engaging speakers trying to come up with a solution to the disturbing problem.
Approximately 6,000 Dallas Independent School District middle and high school students met at American Airlines Center to learn about a See Something, Say Something, Do Something program that will help them know what to do in case of a shooting at their school and how to prevent it. Numerous area leaders spoke at the event, which was also attended by DISD teachers and administrators and presented by the International Association of Venue Managers, American Airlines Center and Dallas ISD.
