School board approves purchase of four portable walkthrough scanners for high school and central school
Summary
The board approved funding to buy four portable metal-detection walkthrough units (two for the high school, two for Central School) and agreed the purchase will be paid from the district safety/LCIF line item.
The Madison County School Board approved a recommendation to purchase four portable walkthrough scanners as part of the district’s move to enhance school safety.
The agenda item said the devices are portable walkthrough metal-detection units — two intended for the high school and two for Central School. The district recommended funding the purchase from the LCIF (safety) line item. The presenter noted Mister Williams, who had planned to speak about the item, was unable to attend because of a dental emergency but that staff still recommended approval.
Miss Gibson moved to approve the communication-technology purchase; Miss Thompson seconded the motion. The board approved the purchase on a unanimous voice vote, 5-0.
Board members did not enter extended debate on the item; the board recorded the purchase approval and directed staff to proceed with the procurement from the identified safety funding source.
