2h agoHigh school students in Paterson are now dealing with extra security checks, including metal detectors.
Dalton Price, District Director of School Safety & Security, said the mandate applies to all Paterson high school students throughout the district.
Students must either pass through metal detectors, or have their persons and belongings scanned by a wand.
The changes comes after at least two students were allegedly discovered with firearms in their possession following a recent fight at the school.
