Barbers Hill ISD trustees approved 32 AnyVision licenses at 32 entryways as the district becomes the third in Texas to deploy facial recognition.

A district alert list will include wanted individuals, sex offenders, protective orders, and suspended or expelled students. The district will maintain licenses flexibly for events, with privacy and camera management features overseen by Lori May and the Barbers Hill Police Department. See security page 3.
