San Rafael private school orders security fencing

Mark Day School in Terra Linda is installing new fencing around its campus and athletic field.

The private school, which leases its space from the Miller Creek School District, obtained a city permit in the spring for the fencing as protection from vandalism and trespassing during school hours and after sunset.

The fencing plan was also approved in a “rigorous” process through the Division of the State Architect, the state agency that oversees K-12 school and community college construction, said head of school Joe Harvey.
