The Davidson County Board of Education has voted (unanimously) to purchase 34 OpenGate metal detection systems for all traditional middle and high schools, a move aimed at boosting security at schools and school athletic events. Unlike traditional metal detectors, the OpenGate security systems are designed for people to walk through with their bags and backpacks, without removing items. The cost will be funded through the Public Schools Repair and Renovation fund of the N.C. Education Lottery. https://www.the-dispatch.com/news/education/davidson-county-schools-approves-opengate-metal-detectors-tor-all-middle-high-schools/article
