What do YOU think about school officials searching your locker? Some students say its necessary for safety and others say it’s an invasion of property. “Go ahead, search my locker,” says senior Courtnee Kuykendall. These locker searches are done twice a week to randomly selected lockers. During locker searches, security and school officials search for marijuana, alcohol, guns, and things of that nature. Locker searches “make schools safer,” says our new security guard, Gwen Randolph. “Although locker searches can be very helpful, some students say that since scans take place, locker searches aren’t need,” says Kaayla Williams. “If it’s not disruptive to students’ education, I feel you should be able to have whatever you want in your locker as long as it’s not dangerous, disruptive or illegal,” says sophomore Everet Mercer. Locker searches aren’t always wanted, but they are sometimes necessary. ]]> Fri, 22 Sep 2006 02:43:00 GMT
