Thurston Middle School will soon be getting new communication equipment for supervisors in an attempt to increase school safety.
The equipment, which includes 12 new walkie-talkies, cost an estimated $2,000 and is being paid for with a $45,342 California Department of Education grant the middle school and Laguna Beach High School recently received.
