(MONTGOMERY) – Attorney General Steve Marshall is extending the deadline for

The Attorney General’s Office will honor private school winners from north, central

school board districts.
“These awards offer a valuable opportunity to honor schools that are succeeding with
outstanding safety plans, to recognize procedures that work well and to encourage
implementation of these methods throughout Alabama to keep our children safer,” said
Attorney General Marshall.
Attorney General Marshall plans to visit winning schools this spring to personally
present the award in honor of each school’s accomplishment.
Applications will be accepted through March 12. More information about criteria for
the awards may be found at the Attorney General’s website at
