At this time the Development Committee is suggesting that we apply for a grant for the installation of additional security cameras.  
We have a proposal from June for $10000 from Spacebound Technologies for expansion of the existing security camera network.  The grant program is a 1:3 match, therefore, if successful the school would be responsible for $2500.

The grant process includes various inspections and audits of the school and its workers comp loss records, etc.
  F. Committee Membership

  G. Safety Grant opportunity
   

The Ohio Bureau of Workers Compensation (BWC) has announced grants of up to $40,000 for safety in schools.  We can apply multiple times, up to the $40,000 while the grant is available.  The grant has a 1:3 match.
