In Bom Jesus dos Perdões, São Paulo, the Municipal School Nelson Benedito de Camargo has been the target of break-ins twice in just seven days. The incidents have resulted in structural damage to the school and the theft of various items, including a television, a cell phone, and bathroom fixtures. The most recent break-in occurred on February 9, highlighting a concerning trend of criminal activity targeting educational institutions in the area.

The local education secretary reported that the intruders forcibly entered the school by breaking doors and security grilles, gaining access to areas where valuable equipment was stored. Measures to enhance security at the school are already in the pipeline, with proposals to install surveillance cameras, enhance monitoring protocols, and reinforce physical barriers, especially in administrative areas where the thefts occurred.

These incidents raise important questions about school safety and the community's ability to protect educational facilities from crime. The school authorities are working to address these vulnerabilities, but the frequency of such break-ins may cause fear among students, staff, and parents alike, prompting a broader discussion on how communities can safeguard their schools from future criminal activity.
