The Biloxi Public School District put cameras in every classroom of the district's 11 schools for the beginning of the 2003-04 school year. Lester Walker, supervisor of machine repair, said nearly 800 cameras have been installed inside and outside the schools. Biloxi's cameras generated national attention. Sue Durbin, spokeswoman for Biloxi Public School District, said Biloxi is the first school district in the United States to put cameras in every classroom. Charlotte Matthew, principal of Avery Alexander Elementary School in Gentilly, said she would have to have more research before deciding how she feels about cameras in schools. She said she would also have to refer to her staff to gauge their feelings. Her gut reaction is she doesn't want cameras in classrooms but hallways or outside would be fine.
