When: Manheim Township School Board virtual meeting, April 8.
What happened: Dan Lyons, director of technology, and Bette Oberle, director of safety and security, led the board through a presentation on purchasing new cloud-based security cameras, with 10-year software licensing, for the middle school and high school to replace an analog system that is 15- to 20-years old.
Comments: The switch from analog to internet protocol will have âfar-reaching implications,â Lyons said. Oberle said the update âwill provide a safe environment in our schools,â by helping to deter crime, bullying and school violence. âA lot of people think cameras catch, but they also protect,â said Matthew Johns, dean of students at the high school. âThe current camera system is not dependable.â

Itâs been one year. More than 950 people have died in Lancaster County. Photos of crowded bars and big family dinners are like postcards from the past. Â
Weâve experienced the impact of COVID-19 in separate ways, with no two experiences exactly the same. Some of us havenât been back to our jobs in a year; others never stopped going; others donât have jobs to return to.

On Thursday, exactly a year later, Murphy received his COVID-19 vaccination. It s funny looking back on how little we knew, Murphy, a second-grade teacher at Nitrauer Elementary School, said Thursday after getting his one-shot Johnson & Johnson vaccine at the Lancaster-Lebanon Intermediate Unit 13 headquarters in Lancaster.
It kicked off the first round of a massive effort to administer vaccines to teachers and staff from Lancaster County public and private schools. The IU13, one of 29 intermediate units across the state, is serving as a host site in collaboration with the Pennsylvania National Guard.
IU13 expects to receive about 5,400 vaccine doses in the first round of inoculations, which prioritizes teachers and staff â bus drivers, cafeteria staff, janitors and others â serving students in prekindergarten through sixth grade and at-risk student populations. The second round, for the rest of teachers and staff, is expected to take place at the end of March or early
