  Provide for the construction of main entry vestibules for security improvements at Alexander ES, Bear Creek ES, Creech ES, Fielder ES, Golbow ES, Hayes ES, Hutsell ES, Katy ES, Mayde Creek ES, McRoberts ES, Sundown ES, Williams ES, Mayde Creek JH, McDonald JH, Memorial Parkway JH, Cinco Ranch HS, Mayde Creek HS and Katy HS.  

Background/Justification:
KISD Safety & security audits identified these schools for secure campus entrances.  Vestibules enable schools to keep all exterior doors locked and direct the public to come in through one monitored entrance. School personnel can then visually inspect and interact with each visitor and ensure that every visitor is logged into RAPTOR.  Secure vestibules are the standard for new school construction.

This is generally achieved by construction of glass storefronts and doors with appropriate electronic door devices.
