AUSTIN — Texas Gov. Greg Abbott announced Wednesday that $5.7 million in grants have been awarded to state and local organizations in the aftermath of the shooting in May at Santa Fe High School.

About one-third of that amount, $1.8 million, was released this week to the city of Santa Fe and its school district "for the development of a long-term resiliency center and additional school and community counseling services," Abbott's office said in a news release.

The other money went to various state and national entities, including the Texas agency that trains school employees to be armed guards as part of the "school marshal" program.

"As the Santa Fe community continues to struggle with the tragedy that occurred this past spring, these grants will provide welcome relief," Abbott said. "I thank our local, state, and federal partners for their work in making these funds available, and the state of Texas will continue to assist the entire Santa Fe community in the aftermath of this tragedy."

On May 18, a gunman killed 10 teachers and students at Santa Fe High School. Dimitrios Pagourtzis, a 17-year-old junior at the school, was indicted on charges of capital murder and assault of a police officer in May. He will not face the death penalty because he is a minor.

The week after the shooting, Abbott convened three days of talks on school safety in the Capitol. On the final day, teachers and students from Santa Fe offered him dozens of recommendations, including a desire for more school marshals and mental health counselors, as well changes to the law that would hold parents who own guns accountable for kids who misuse them.

Abbott unveiled his school safety proposals a week later. The plan identified nearly $110 million in funding to improve school safety, of which $1 million in federal funding has already been disbursed. The $5.7 million in grant money announced Wednesday comes from the Governor's Criminal Justice Division and was split up as follows:

City of Santa Fe — $1,507,985

Galveston County — $61,146

Gulf Coast Center — $1,242,223

National Organization for Victim Assistance (NOVA) — $32,000

Santa Fe ISD — $322,000

Texas Commission on Law Enforcement — $114,586

Texas Education Service Center (ESC) Region 4 — $687,586

Texas Health and Human Services Commission (HHSC) — $1,121,620

Texas State University ALERRT Center — $575,000

Texas State University School Safety Center — $81,022

The Santa Fe district has also voted to install metal detectors donated for use at its four schools by Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick and a couple of private companies, and accepted an anonymous donation of 15 AR-15s, which will be given to the district's police officers.

In the aftermath of the shooting, both the Texas House and Senate convened hearings on school safety. The lawmakers discussed the need for more mental health counselors and calls for an increase in the armed presence on campuses, but Abbott and Patrick acknowledged there was no consensus on the need for "red flag" laws that would let judges confiscate firearms from people who are found to be a danger to themselves or others.

School safety is expected to be a priority issue during the next legislative session, which kicks off in early January.
