The system will be installed across the four campuses of Tanque Verde High School and Elementary School, the Emily Gray Junior High School and the Agua Caliente Elementary School.

The project is expected to commence operation in early 2013.

SOLON has enjoyed working with TVUSD to ensure the systems have been designed to be the most functional for each campus.”
