Liberty County School System introducing weapons detection systems in middle and high schools this week

by WTOC Staff

LIBERTY COUNTY, Ga. (WTOC) - The Liberty County School System is prioritizing safety this week.

Starting Monday morning, a new weapons detection system will be in place. The ‘Opengate’ weapons detection system will be rolled out in all middle and high schools.

These walk-through systems are designed for rapid, unobtrusive scanning of individuals for dangerous items, adding an extra layer of security to the school environment. Students and visitors will walk through the gates upon entry. Laptops and certain items will need to be removed from backpacks for separate screening to prevent alerts.

Staff will be present to assist and address any detected threats, with a secondary screening process in place for repeated alerts.
