Police Visits to Moorestown Schools to Become the Norm

Moorestown police officers have started dropping by all the township schools in an effort to create a greater sense of security.

Moorestown Police are beginning to make their presence felt throughout all the township's schools by doing random pop-ins, in light of the heightened sensitivity to school security.
