(KLZA)-- The Falls City Board of Education has approved the list of facility improvement projects for 2016, as prioritized by the Boards Project Committee.
Capital improvements scheduled for the spring and summer include security updates at North and South Elementary Schools and the Middle School. Also on the list is carpeting for the South School library and Middle School band / choir room; a new sidewalk entrance to the main front entrance at the High School. Lighting updates will be made in the High School Shop and the stage lighting and curtains in the High School Auditorium will be improved.
The Board also approved a new policy authorizing the use of video cameras and other passive electronic measures, including motion detectors for the purpose of ensuring the health, welfare and safety of staff, students and visitors. This should help safeguard District 56 facilities and equipment.
