Measure D was passed by 62 percent of voters, according to KGO TV. A large amount of the funds will go towards improving school security as a result of the Oct. 23 gang rape of a 15-year-old student at Richmond High School.

The district will team up with local law enforcement to link up the new security systems and install surveillance cameras at schools.
