Hillsboro School Bond Would Address Safety and Security

One of the four main categories of need the Hillsboro School Bond would address is
Safety and Security. Nearly 17 percent of the bond program - more than $68 million - is allocated to seismic upgrades for our schools that do not currently meet a "life safety" standard; and safety enhancements like security cameras and line-of-sight improvements at schools, cameras and GPS systems on all buses, parent/bus drop-off improvements, and playground upgrades.
