Some parents in Chelsea say the lack of safety in their schools is out of control.
They claim even principals have asked the city for more school safety agents, but they told CBS2’s Lisa Rozner on Thursday their requests have been falling on deaf ears.
The NYPD says it’s training a new class of safety agents, but the safety agents union says it’s a class of almost 200, a fraction of the void.
“It takes about five months to get a school safety agent in place. So, if we started today, by September we can have school safety agents in place,” union president Gregory Floyd said.
