The checks will include 'wanding' students with handheld metal detectors and using K-9 officers to determine if any illegal items are being stored in lockers.
MUNCIE — Muncie Community Schools says it plans to start random security checks and locker searches at its high school and two middle schools.
To improve school safety, the state distributed 3,436 handheld metal detectors to 422 school corporations back in 2019 for a total cost to taxpayers of $352,718."We still have the metal detectors we were issued and we use them for various special events . They are in the office of our security director and used when needed," MCS told WRTV in June 2022.
MCS says 15 employees of Legacy Life have all gone through School Resource Officer training as well as de-escalation, active shooter and cultural competency training.
