School District Receives Grant to Improve School Safety
December 09, 2015
The Missouri School Boards’ Association through its Missouri Center for Education Safety (CES), is pleased to announce the South Harrison R-II School District has been awarded a school safety grant in the amount of $5,000. The funds will be used by the district to update current video surveillance cameras.
The district competed with other public schools in the state for a limited amount of funding, which is aimed at enhancing school safety in local school districts. The funding for this initiative was made possible through a legislative appropriation to the Department of Elementary & Secondary Education and that is being administered by MSBA through CES, which is the state’s school safety center. The CES provides comprehensive support to all schools in Missouri, through training, technical assistance, and other safety related initiatives. More information on this grant and other school safety related programs can be found at the CES web site: www.moces.org. The Missouri School Boards’ Association is a private, not-for-profit organization that exists to help school boards succeed.
