(ST. JOSEPH, Mo.) The tragedy at Sandy Hook Elementary in Newtown, Conn., last month has many schools reevaluating their own security measures.
St. Joseph Cathedral School began installing new security cameras at the school and early child care entrances on Wednesday.
It has been a work in progress for six months as donations have slowly come in to help pay for the new security measures.
After the tragic shooting in Connecticut, there was a rush to finally get it done.
"It brought a lot of donations in because of that and parents were concerned," said Rob Weaver, a member of the school's security council. "We needed to get something done because we didn't really have any type of visual."
