I want to see him going thru the detector while holding a laptop, a large 3-ring binder and a wet umbrella above his head and carrying a backpack and a lunch box on his shoulders. He probably could also carry one more item, like, a violin case? He can hold the handle using his teeth.
4 of my freshman's classes want three ring binders with dividers. That's a lot to pull out every day with the laptop. The umbrella is necessary given how long they are standing outside.

Fairfax has started. LBSS, Robinson and WSHS have not. LBSS has 3 doors. Kids are only allowed in those 3 doors this week. The actual detectors start next week but now they are trained to only go through the 3 chosen doors. Last year all doors were open.

I do have to wonder if this is what will happen in the long run. By the end of the school year, they will be pushed to the side. Then, they will sit on a blacktop somewhere after that.
They have a huge warehouse for all the materials that only last a year and FCPS gets rid of. Millions and Millions of dollars wasted.
Remember the huge wedding reception kind of tents that were put in place during Covid? At our ES it didn't get used even that year...and it just takes up space to this day. Those things rent for thousands per use.

We know on here that Westfield, Woodson and Herndon have all started.
Langley has started too.
The photos of lines on the first day were posted from ffx high, so I would assume they have also started

The people whose kids aren't waiting in line at all don't seem eager to share the name of the school.
It almost makes you think they are gatehouse trolls or shills for whoever is making $$ off this metal detector contract.

Westfield is only using two doors. Except one day the second door was broken and they only used one door. That was the day it was really raining as well.
My kid says only one kid goes thru at a time, but its 7:30 and he's 14, so I wouldn't bet the farm on his observational prowess.
Why isn't all this public information?

No.
How do you know this? I'm just curious because it seems like some of the schools are really struggling.
Well at some schools the number is still 0.
Posters here seem to say it's 1-2 except that one troll who said their school has 4 and it's all amazing. You would think the Secondary Schools would have more than the small high schools but asking for sense here is probably getting a bit greedy.
