We have made significant upgrades to our district-wide exterior access controls and interior locks, including the installation of safety indicator locks on every classroom door and the rekeying of every door as part of a systematic lock system. These upgrades may go unnoticed by the public eye but are significant in our continued building safety efforts. #WeAreLawson #AprilBond
