PA and Security Improvements

PA/Clock System Replacement
Once complete, the PA/clock systems will be combined
in a single set of hardware devices. This system provides
improved paging functionality and a new ability to post
text messages useful for daily updates and information
during emergencies. Similar to other equipment, some
critical devices have been affected by disruptions in the
global supply chain. We have moved forward with the
installation of supporting infrastructure, and the
PA/Clock System will be installed outside of school
hours once they arrive. We anticipate that these systems
will be complete at the end of September.
Security Cameras & Intrusion Alarm
Security cameras have been recently upgraded at
SMMUSD campuses and other properties. Once
complete, JAMS will be managed under the same
district wide security camera network. The new intrusion
alarm is designed to work together with the security
cameras and will be managed by the same software
system. In order to reduce the impact to students and
school staff, we have moved forward with the
installation of supporting infrastructure, and the camera
and alarm devices will be installed outside of school
hours once they arrive. We anticipate that these systems
will be complete at the end of September.
