CODY, Wyo. — Fears of bullying have led to the installation of 73 high-definition cameras at a high school in northwestern Wyoming, with officials hoping that the move will deter violence.
Cody High School principal Dave Treick says he’s excited about the new system, which by Christmas will replace an old system that has just seven cameras.
He told the Cody Enterprise that he’s worked in schools where systems like the new one have been used to document details of fights, to assess blame and culpability.
The school polled students in a “climate and culture survey” last spring, and they highlighted concerns about feeling unsafe when on campus.
