SKPS Safety Systems: Weapons Detection Systems

Our district is committed to ensuring the safety and security of all students and staff by implementing weapon detection systems. This decision follows a successful pilot program and extensive community feedback, as part of our ongoing efforts to maintain safe, welcoming, and productive learning environments.
Salem-Keizer Public Schools installed weapon detection systems in high schools during the 2024-25 school year and will likely expand to middle schools in 2025-26.
