Metal Detectors

metal detector banner
As part of Seguin ISD’s ongoing commitment to providing a safe and secure environment for all students, staff, families, and visitors, walk-through metal detectors will be used at the entrances of select special events held at district facilities, including but not limited to athletic events, performances, and ceremonies.

Guests attending these events will be asked to follow the directions of security screening personnel. Large metal items—such as phones, keys, cameras, and permitted seat cushions—should be placed in designated containers on the screening tables before walking through the metal detectors. Guests will not be required to remove belts, watches, wallets, jewelry, shoes, jackets, coins, or other small personal items.

Seguin ISD will continue to enforce its clear bag policy to enhance safety and expedite the entry process.
