Новыа виды технологии помогает графству Guilford для того чтобы обучить содержание руководителей глаз на ваших малышах.

Greensboro, NC - заречье установило первые камеры surveillance больше чем декада тому назад, но подъем теперь дает руководителям взгляд от 3 углов.

«Не будет реально дороги спрятать от их,» Джеф Harris, директор перевозки для Школы графства Guilford сказано о новых камерах шины школы.

No matter where вы сидите на одной из 82 шин школы графства Guilford, что-нибыдь, котор вы завещаете было зацепляно камера.

«Мы можем оставить камере трудный привод на шину и препятствуйте ей как раз непрерывно записать поведение или нисколько вроде действия студента на шине,» сказал Harris.

Камеры записывают любые действие или переговор. “Each camera at each mounted location has a microphone,” he said.

Each bus equipped with a surveillance system has three different cameras, picking up three different angles of activity on the school bus.

That means it’s virtually impossible to do anything and not get filmed.

Harris hopes the cameras cut down on problems, stemming from students or drivers. “If there’s a problem where a student accuses a driver of something, one of the cameras catches the driver area,” he said.

Video surveillance caught this 2005 struggle between a student and a bus driver in Charlotte County, Florida.

A year later, two sisters attacked a fellow student in New Mexico.

Whether it’s a fight like those, or something like vandalism, any inappropriate behavior will be harder to hide.

“If they’re covering up this camera at this angle, then that camera in the front is capturing who is messing with this camera,” said Harris, pointing to the two cameras focused on bus seats.

The district installed cameras in 82 out of 634 buses. The plan is to add a few more each year, depending on how much it costs to get buses around their routes.

“We’ll have to see what fuel costs are looking like for the future, and then that will determine what we can use money for,” Harris said.

Guilford County Schools picked up the $148,000 tab using taxpayer dollars. Middle school principals helped decide which buses to outfit with cameras

They each identified four or five buses at their schools with the most discipline problems.

The new cameras can record up to 15 days of activity, compared to the old cameras, which could capture only 45 to 60 minutes at a time.

Guilford County Schools isn’t the only system using video surveillance on school buses.

Winston-Salem/Forsyth County Schools have a limited number in use. Rockingham County Schools purchased cameras for roughly half of their buses at the beginning of the 2007/2008 school year.
