The Paulding County School District is comprised of 40 sites, with 35 of the sites serving as schools for our 31,500 students. To enhance the safety and security of our students, staff, and visitors, PCSD is seeking to implement an access control solution for 19 elementary schools, 10 middle schools, 5 high schools, 1 alternative school, and up to 5 administrative buildings over multiple years. PCSD is seeking to implement an access control solution over a multi‐year period as funding is made available and will combine some implementation work with site renovation and construction projects. Some, but not all, PCSD doors are currently outfitted with door hardware and power required for an access control solution.
