Connecticut has approved an additional round of school security grants.  $10 million will be used to enhance security infrastructure at 182 public and private schools in 51 municipalities. 

Two Danbury schools will use $125,272, split evenly between the state and city funding.  Kent's school is getting $102,281, matched with local funding.  Ridgefield will spend $2,200 of local funding to bolster a $736 grant for one school. 

The funds were approved under a program created in 2013 as part of a broad legislative package focusing on gun violence prevention, mental health, and school security issues in response to the shooting at Sandy Hook School.
