*****Important alert*****

School officials told to be on lookout for spying

WASHINGTON - The Education Department has alerted school leaders nationwide to watch for people spying on their buildings as a possible sign of a terrorist threat.
(snip)

In particular, schools have been told to watch for activities that may be legitimate on their own — but may suggest a heightened terrorist threat if there are many of them.

Among those activities:

*Interest in obtaining site plans for schools, bus routes and attendance lists.

*Prolonged “static surveillance” by people disguised as panhandlers, shoe shiners, newspaper or flower vendors or street sweepers not previously seen in the area.

*Observations of security drills.
People staring at or quickly looking away from employees or vehicles as they enter or leave parking areas.

*Foot surveillance of campuses involving individuals working together. (snip)

Gee, and even though the disaster plans for the San Diego Unified school district were found on a terrorists computer in Iraq, the SD police just continue to say "nothing to worry your pretty little heads about".

Outraged in SD.
