(Fargo, ND) -- North Dakota Representative Kelly Armstrong was asked about "hardening schools" following Monday's school shooting in Nashville that left 6 people dead.
"The issue on hardening schools, it has to be a local issue. I mean, you go to a rural community in North Dakota, I use Mott as an example. Their building is built early 1900s brick, all of those different issues which is very different than a new school that's been developed in Fargo. As is with most things, education-wise, these decisions should be made locally," said Armstrong.
Armstrong says decisions surrounding how to secure schools need to take place locally and include parental input.
Armstrong appeared on "What's on Your Mind" on AM 1100 The Flag.
