2A THE DAILY ASTORIAN TUESDAY, MARCH 1, 2016 6ecurity enhancements beinJ High wind warning for Tuesday planned for peninsula schools The Daily Astorian +oZever, 5isner said last ZeeN that after the letter Zent out, district 0aintenance 6upervisor -erry %runer decided to consult Zith the company that provides the district¶s e[istinJ alarm sys tem. He learned the company could provide increased secu rity for far less. ,n cominJ months, the dis TZo hoa[es in a year heiJhten parent concerns By NATALIE ST. JOHN EO Media Group /21* %(A&+, :ash. ² 2cean %each 6chool District 6uperintendent -enny 5isner says district leaders are ZorN inJ to increase security on school campuses. 2ver the cominJ months, maintenance staff Zill be installinJ steel barrier doors. District leaders are also maN inJ plans to purchase a secure entry system for each campus. )olloZinJ a )ebruary hoa[ call that caused the second school locNdoZn in less than a year, a Jroup of local par ents created a )acebooN paJe to raise money for a hiJhtech security door for /onJ %each (lementary. ,n a )ebruary let ter to parents, 5isner said she also met Zith three parents ³Zho Zere concerned that Ze did not have more security systems in place.” ,n the letter, 5isner said that Zhen district leaders Jot estimates for bu]]in and cam eraentry systems last sprinJ, they found that even basic systems ranJed from , to , per buildinJ. The total cost, she said, Zould be ³a huJe impact to the budJet.” ‘The high school is a different beast altogether.’ Jenny Risner Ocean Beach School District superintendent trict Zill install a bu]]in sys tem and security camera at the front door of /onJ %each (lementary ² the campus that Zas tarJeted in both of the schoolshootinJ hoa[es. 2f¿ ce staff Zill manaJe the security system, 5isner said. Other doors on the campus Zill have secure carden try systems. 5isner estimated that the /onJ %each upJrade Zill cost the district about ,. District staff are applyinJ for a Jrant that could help pay for the neZ security features. %ut 5isner said that because the price is so much loZer than e[pected, the district isn¶t ZaitinJ to purchase the ¿ rst neZ system. 5isner said the ne[t cam pus to receive a system Zill be Ocean 3arN. The district hasn¶t Jotten a bid for that sys tem yet, but e[pects it to cost about the same as in /onJ %each. 1e[t year, the district Zill tacNle security at Hilltop 6chool, and they Zill ZorN on ,lZaco HiJh 6chool after that, 5isner said. ³The hiJh school is a differ ent beast altoJether, because there are so many more doors, so that¶s Jonna be our last area,” 5isner e[plained. 5isner said the district has also purchased steel door bar riers for all classroom and Jymnasium doors. The tZo locNdoZns in the last year Zere both purely pre cautionary, 5isner said. There Zas never actually a danJer ous person on any campus durinJ either incident. %ut, should a real activeshooter incident ever occur, the doors should help to limit the harm. ³The barriers come hiJhly recommended and Zill ensure that an intruder can¶t Jet in the classroom for a very lonJ time,” 5isner said in her let ter. The district¶s mainte nance staff Zill be installinJ the doors over the ne[t several months.
