District Announces New Director of Safety and Security

The Wantagh Union Free School District announces the recent appointment of Mr. Brian Hilmann who will serve as the new Director of Safety and Security. Mr. Hillman comes to the Wantagh school community with 28 years of experience in law enforcement with the New York Police Department where he held several supervisory and commanding officer positions including Queens Robbery Squad, Detective Bureau, Precinct Detective Squad, and Burglary and Robbery Apprehension Model.
Prior to joining the NYPD Police Academy, Hillman obtained a Bachelor of Arts degree in Business Administration from Hofstra University. After joining the NYPD, he continued his professional development in Sergeants Leadership, Lieutenants Advanced Leadership, and Detective Bureau Supervisors courses among others.
After working with a security consultant to further enhance current safety and security initiatives, Superintendent John McNamara recommended the addition of a full-time Director of Safety and Security during last month’s Board of Education meeting.
The District looks forward to the positive impact Mr. Hillmann will bring as the district continues enhancing safety measures and supporting the well-being of its school community.
