National Summit on K-12 School Safety and Security

For the third year in a row, the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency will host the National Summit on K-12 School Safety and Security. This virtual event brings together K-12 school leaders and practitioners to discuss and share actionable recommendations that enhance safe and supportive learning environments.
