Secure Our Schools grants are administered by the office of U.S. Justice Department’s Community Oriented Policing Services. The Secure our Schools initiative gives grantees the opportunity to establish and enhance school safety equipment and programs.

Besides surveillance cameras, the grants help cover the cost of metal detectors, locks, lighting, security assessments, security training for students and personnel, and coordination with local law enforcement.

Since 2002, nearly 80 Secure Our School grants, worth more than $6 million, have been awarded to state law enforcement agencies and school districts.

North American Video is a national security systems integration contractor, according to its Web site. It provides consultation, design and installation services for video surveillance equipment for casinos, corporations, retail, banking and financial institutions, as well as schools.
