    I had lockdown drills back to elementary school. We also had monthly random police dog drug searches (at Highschool) and metal detectors (starting at middle school). Kids had to carry everything in their hands because they weren’t allowed to use bags/backpacks inside the school. There were a few bag searches too. It was very normalized so none of us really thought much of it, but it also wasn’t in the best of areas so that‘s definitely not a universal experience for all zoomers.

        Yeah, idk why they didn’t let us do that. There was a blanket ban for all bags except for coming in and out of the school. If you were in the building they had to be locked up the entire time. We did have a problem with students dealing and have had threats from students (and one time an escaped, armed convict) so I get why, it just sucks that it’s even an issue in the first place.
