Metal Detectors at schools

For the past few weeks everyone got shocked and so frightened with the suicide on the Virginia Tech campus. In the '70s and '80s you would never even think about it, but now it's becoming more and more of a problem. The doors at those times were never locked, and the buildings were wide open...but not now. Now it's too dangerous to act like that. Administrators of the Basehor-Linwood High School conduct sporadic to daily metal detector searches.
This issue is becoming more and more pressing as new notes of violence appear.
Area school administrators say security policies are reviewed on an annual basis. Though some districts review the issue on a monthly and even weekly basis. There was a time when only students at large high schools were subjected to security examinations, such as going through a metal detector, but now everything has changed.
Overall, school principals say that they simply can't afford to leave the doors unlocked.
