Sidwell has to have the security to prevent something disastrous. Obama has enough trouble just being head of the state. If something were to happen to his kids...wow.

Plus, didn't Sidwell have some of its own non SS security when Bill Clinton's daughter went there?

I'd say that anyone who's providing armed security at any public place like a school must be active duty law enforcement, period.
