CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) – North Carolina’s second largest school system is launching a social media campaign to bring awareness to the danger of guns and their impact on students.
Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools says the campaign is meant to increase participation in and awareness of the increased effort to keep schools safe.
The Guns Can’t campaign launched Thursday with a series of posters contrasting what guns can’t do with what students can. The new campaign is one of several safety and security measures contained in a district wide initiative which identifies what schools, students, families and the community can do to keep schools safe.
The initiative comes four months after a fatal shooting at Butler High School. Another student at the school was charged in the case.
