Area Chiefs, Detectives Commended by Wissahickon School Board
Chiefs and detectives from Lower Gwynedd, Ambler and Whitpain were honored by the school board last week for their efforts in keeping the region safe.
In the wake of the Sandy Hook Elementary massacre in Connecticut, Superintendent Judith Clark, according to The Ambler Gazette, questioned if her Wissahickon School District was doing all it could do to protect students, faculty and staff.
At last week's Wissahickon School Board meeting, Clark and the board honored public safety officials who had provided guidance and aid in the school district doing all it can to promote that safety, according to the article.
Commended at the meeting were Chiefs William Foley, John Scholly (Ret.) and Mark Smith of Ambler Borough, Lower Gwynedd Township and Whitpain Township police departments, respectively; and Detectives Tom Craig Jr., Glenn Fowler and Thomas Wittig of Ambler Borough, Lower Gwynedd and Whitpain Township police departments, respectively.
