Overview

  • ASD is committed to ensuring a safe and supportive learning environment for all our students and staff. That is why the Office of Emergency Management (ASD OEM) will pilot the use of portable metal detectors in schools this winter.

    This initiative represents a proactive response to increasing safety within schools across ASD.

    Please know this is not a disciplinary measure but a proactive approach to enhancing school safety. After the pilot period at Wendler MS, the District plans to rotate the three sets of metal detectors across all ASD campuses; they will NOT be a permanent fixture at campus. The deployment across ASD schools will be both random and, if needed, in response to credible safety threats.

    This feedback form below will be available the week of Dec 9 during the pilot deployment for student and family feedback.

    Thank you for your support as we work together to ensure a safe environment for all students and staff.
