Police in West Aurora to Use School Surveillance Cameras in Training
The West Aurora School District will soon be fully monitored by security cameras and become the first district to work with the Aurora Police Department to improve school safety using video surveillance.
According to an article from The Beacon News, the West Aurora School Board approved the $137,000 purchase and installation of security cameras at all 10 elementary schools, as well as the Hope D. Wall School and Todd Early Childhood Center in Aurora, Ill. About four years ago, the West Aurora High School had cameras installed, and the district’s four middle schools got cameras last year.
