Logan County voters overwhelmingly supported a measure to expand a tax already in place to address school security and student mental and emotional wellness.

On the WHOW Morning Show Monday, Superintendent of Hartsburg-Emden schools Terry Wisniewski expressed his appreciation to voters of Logan County for supporting the referendum in an overwhelming fashion.

According to Wisniewski, the expansion of the tax already in place will allow for the district to afford a part-time school resource officer through the Logan County Sheriff's office. He hopes perhaps to expand the scope of their mental and emotional health professional already in place and to get to work with the Logan County Sheriff's Office about a school resource officer.

Wisniewski hopes details for a school resource officer through the Sheriff's office can be hashed out and that person can be in the district starting next school year.
