Safety 1st At Constitution High SchoolThey say the second safest place from home, should be school. Here at Constitution High school principal Dr. Davison says “ That safety a major priority at Con High.” But sadly this isn’t the case for some of the students at Constitution High School.In the second year of our high school being open. A student had sneaked a bb gun onto school premises. It brought concern among the parents of the students. So to tackle the issue, and refill the trust parents had that their children was safe. Dr. Davison place metals detectors in the student’s lobby and issue morning bag checking by security. Up roar! Among the students began.“ This don’t make sense. If I’m running 2 minutes late , I ‘m still have to worry about getting check at the door. Taking away from my 2 minutes I had to be on time.”Copper,20Malik graduating class 2011Students feel as a though that being check at the door away from time, and causes them too be late. Which if late 3 times you are given a detention . Bag checking takes time causing us to suffer other consequences such as being late. Students have other obligations to fill, then to be bother by security.
One student “Fatima Joshua” states she feels that “This is a violation of our constitutional rights. I mean we are Constitution High School.“ \
Students argue that our school is base on the constitutional but we are violated our 4th amendment rights. When our privacy is violated by bag searching. Personal items that you may not want expose too public eyes are relieved. But safety come first at Con High.
So what is the metal detectors here for. If the principal place them there to make the school for everyone. Why is the students so upset by the jester. Dr. Davison made to keep parents out of concern. Does this violate our rights or does safety come first at Con High.
