A group of moms are raising money to install safety devices in classrooms in Ada. The fundraising effort to install “The Boot” in district classrooms is about a quarter of the way to its $44,000 goal. The Boot is a device that prevents an intruder from opening the door.

Hancock County schools are installing the same device in every school building.

You can send donations for the project to P.O. Box 244, Ada, 45810. If you write a check, make it out to Military Order of the Purple Heart and put “Boots for Bulldogs” in the memo line.
