The Eastern Pulaski School Board agreed to move forward with a concept for a school safety grant equipment purchase that will be submitted to the Pulaski County Safety Commission.
Superintendent Dr. Robert Klitzman explained that the $50,000 matching grant would be used to fund several equipment upgrades at the buildings. The grant money would be used to upgrade the security camera system to record digital images, to install a keyless entry system for all staff at the elementary school, to install a new box for emergencies that directly notifies EMS, and to devise a mechanism to display emergency plans in all classrooms.
