Crenshaw County School’s plan to implement safety plans is “rocking along.”

In April, school officials announced they would change some 700 locks in the system for an estimated $50,000, and that they would purchase 105 additional cameras for the school campuses for an estimated $75,000.

The keys are specially designed and cannot be replicated at a local hardware store.

Superintendent Randy Wilkes said Monday that they are currently installing surveillance cameras at Brantley School, and the re-keying was currently going on at Luverne School. Locks have already been changed at Brantley and will soon be changed at Highland.

The project is being paid for by local funds.

In other business, the board:

• heard from Wilkes that the special education department meets the requirement for Part B of IDEA. They scored level one in at all levels. Wilkes said that the department handles 200-plus individualized education programs, and there were zero findings.

“I’d like to give kudos to the special education department,” he said.
