January 4, 2013 Laramie County School District 1 Superintendent Mark Stock says district officials have been working over the Christmas break to improve monitoring of older schools in the district.
Stock says newer school buildings are generally constructed in such a way that school officials can keep tabs on who is coming and going--in large part because the school offices are usually located near main entrances

March 29, 2012 Bullying Hurts founder Marvin Nash says some schools in Laramie County District 1 are not safe for students because of the threat of bullying, a view Superintendent Mark Stock strongly disputes. Nash says a lack of openness and inaction on anti-bullying efforts in the district means some district students are not safe from bullying. Nash says that while the district does not ignore incidents of bullying, it's efforts don't go far enough in some cases. He points to the death of Carey Junior High School student Alex Frye in January as an example. Frye died from a gunshot wound January 3 after his father had reported him missing January 1. Frye was allegedly severely bullied at school prior to his death. Laramie County Coroner Mary Luna has scheduled an inquest for next month to determine the exact circumstances of Frye's death.
