ST. PAUL, Minn. — The St. Paul school district has opted to keep American Security and Investigations as its security provider, even though the firm costs more than other bidders for the job this summer.
The district will pay the firm $1.4 million this coming school year, St. Paul Pioneer Press reports. The firm has served the district since 2005, and many of its 32 security officers deployed in the district have worked at St. Paul Public Schools just as long.
