D15 To Add More 'Secure Vestibules' At Schools

PALATINE, IL — District 15 plans to install "secure vestibules" at six more of its buildings next summer. Construction of the secure vestibules started with updates to five schools this past summer. The vestibules include modifications of the front entrance of a school to ensure visitors pass through the main office before getting into the rest of the school building, according to Community Consolidated School District 15.

The buildings to get the secure vestibules next summer include: Lincoln, Central Road, Frank C. Whiteley, Walter R. Sundling, Stuart R. Paddock and Marion Jordan.

The remaining eight District 15 schools already had secure vestibules in place.

The Board of Education will continue to discuss an expanded scope of main office construction proposed for several schools at its January meeting after bid results are received.
