Dear Greene County CSD Families and Community Members, In an effort to improve our school security, a measure that we have taken is to install video security door access systems, also known as A-Phones. These will operate similar to a door bell with a video camera, however, it is another layer of security that we can take prior to allowing outside guests or visitors access to our schools. Our exterior doors will remain locked throughout the day. Beginning November 1st, all public traffic, students or families arriving after building-specific hours will be routed to our main entrances. Office receptionists will “buzz in” guests, visitors, and students individually. We expect these systems to be fully implemented and operational at each building by November 1st. Thank you for your continued support in keeping our schools safe and secure. Brett Abbotts, Superintendent Greene County CSD #RollRams
