It’s a pilot program for work zones. School zones were supposed to be in the pilot as well, but cops complained too much.

Well of course they did. If there are camera there, they don't need to sit there and get paid double or triple time for doing nothing.

They had a school zones camera in Nassau County (NY) a few years ago the backlash was enormous and after a few months it was repealed.

Because at the HS the kids are road hazards and need to be enforced but the parents don't want to cough up the cash. At the lower schools the parents want to drive recklessly on their way to work. Schools zones are just as important as construction zones.
