I'm all for metal detectors. Anything to keep this kids safe should be of the up most concern. I feel the schools are not trying to prevent problems, I tried to explain that the elementary school my children attend on awards day ANYONE can walk into the school, no questions asked. They keep continueing and nothing has changed. WHY? WHY are these so called teachers, principals, board of education not doing anything! WHY?????? I feel for these students afraid to go and like the girl stated she can do nothing but go everyday...sad,sad,sad...I'm sorry.
