Director of Schools Bobby Cox updated members of the School Board about ongoing projects within the school system during a recent School Board meeting.The first update regarded the camera systems and new locks for schools. “We bid the project and it came in a little bit over what the budget was. I met with Ken Roberts, the engineer, and he asked if there were some things we might be able to reduce to get down to where we’ve got a manageable level,” said Cox.Cox said Roberts suggested only having a magnetic card reader on one side of the main entrance doors, instead of both sides.
