Welcome to Glencairn Elementary School

Be SMART – Firearms are the leading cause of death among children in the United States. The Board of Education passed a Safe Gun Storage Resolution at their March 13, 2023, meeting which includes annual notice to families about the importance of secure gun storage to protect minors from accessing unsecured guns. The Be SMART website includes numerous handouts and other resources on best practices for gun storage, types of storage and guidance for talking to your children about guns.

ELPS is proud to offer free gun safety locks for distribution to students, families, and staff, made possible through the Michigan State Police (MSP) Grants and Community Services Division. Please email Director of Safety, Jon Martin at jonathan.martin@elps.us if you’d like to pick up a free gun safety lock.

Information on the safe storage laws, a Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) document, and additional handouts can be accessed here: https://besmartforkids.org/secure-gun-storage/resources/
