Window and door retrofits provide security at Phoum Stung Primary School

Unfortunately, it is not uncommon for thieves to target schools, especially schools that are equipped with resources unavailable elsewhere in the community.  Most Cambodian schools have barred windows, not to keep kids from escaping the classrooms, but rather, as a security measure.  Phoum Stung Primary School, however, lacked this minimum level of security.  In November 2007, SCC supported the installation of metal bar window and door retrofits in a classroom doubling as the school director's office and library, providing the school with a place for the safe-keeping of teaching materials and resources.  Since installation of the retrofits, the staff at Phoum Stung have started stocking the room with things of great value -- books!
