It’s a well known fact that Kansas City has its fair share of crime problems. Studies estimate that crime rates in Kansas City are 328% higher than the national average. Crime has been a hot topic among Kansas City schools for years now. And after the recent shootings in other US schools, teachers and parents in Kansas City are becoming even more concerned.

In recent years, hundreds of schools across the film have installed security window film and even more are beginning to realize its importance.
Windows are, after all, the most vulnerable point of a school building. Intruders can easily break in through windows or target students by looking through the glass.
