Bruce Morgenstern and the Anne Arundel–Annapolis Community Emergency Response Team (AAACERT) have redefined what it means to be a dedicated partner. Mr. Morgenstern continually has Meade students at the forefront of his interests as he helps to build the pipeline of next generation professionals working in homeland security and the defense industry. Mr. Morgenstern co-authored the Meade High School 3-Year Strategic Plan to not only support the new AACPS Strategic Plan and the Signature Program Green Standard but also to ensure that the students of Meade High School have access to every opportunity and the support they need to address the information revolution of the 21st century.<\/p>\n

In addition, through Mr. Morgenstern\u2019s affiliation with AAACERT, he has supported Meade High School by offering a Teen Basic CERT course, which has provided 17 Meade students with a nationally recognized certification in emergency preparedness and response. Mr. Morgenstern has also recruited new Homeland Security Signature ICST members specializing in the cyber security industry to ensure that Meade High School has input from those that not only have access to the cutting-edge technologies and approaches within the field but are also developing and defending these new operating environments. He ensures that students are prepared to enter these fields by coordinating and offering resume builder workshops to students and teachers as well as job interview strategies and support. Beyond supporting the students of Meade High School as they plan and prepare for their future careers, Mr. Morgenstern is dedicated to the preparedness and response of the residents of Anne Arundel County towards events that can cripple a county’s infrastructure and resident well being.<\/p>\n
