Schools Embrace The Security Imperative
WaPo – I touched on this about 7 months ago –
In an increasing number of schools, security drives decisions about everything from where to place the principal’s office to what kinds of locks and windows are selected.
Advances in technology, however, make it easier for features such as metal detectors to be built directly into walls or to place surveillance cameras in ceilings, he said.
The school’s long hallways are designed for smooth traffic flow but also so they can be easily monitored by staff posted in strategic locations. Doors around the rest of the building allow people to leave but not enter the school.
