Emergency Preparedness Information

School Camera Infrastructure

MCPS uses closed-circuit television cameras (CCTV) to provide security and protection for our schools and offices. Additionally, the footage captured from these cameras can assist in the protection against internal threats, validating or disproving claims of abuse or bullying, or any other inappropriate behavior between students and/or staff members.
