The middle school in the city was my first assignment as its new principal. However, I have heard that this school was one of the worst in the city due to behavioral problems and the presence of gangs, vandals, petty thieves, and truants.

When the superintendent of the district called me, we talked about this problem at length. I suggested that we should put a hidden camera with built in DVR in strategic locations in the school to monitor the students.

My request was granted and I was happy that the district supported it. Wall clocks in each classroom had plugs that powered them along with the covert cameras and DVRs.

Students never noticed that the Exit Sign at the end of the hallway had a hidden camera with built in DVR system as well. It has an SD card that records everything the camera captured.

In the library, we had two spy cameras: the desk lamp on the librarian’s table, and the air purifier. Students’ movements inside were monitored and recorded. We also set them to record when motion was detected after school hours.

I was told that the principal’s office was also broken in before. The culprit was not caught. I put an alarm clock with a hidden camera with built in DVR that would record any time motion was sensed.

During a faculty meeting to discuss the school’s thrust to minimize, if not curtail, the students’ behavioral problems, I encouraged the teachers to equip themselves with either a pen camera or a watch camera whenever they are in school. The pen camera is an effective hidden camera with built in DVR since it can also record sounds. It can write like a normal pen and a simple click can start recording.

With the embedded SD card in most of these spy cameras, we were able to view all the recordings regularly from a computer or from a TV with the RCA cable that be connected to them.
