Superintendent Adam Spina announced that Williamston schools will implement advanced artificial intelligence gun detection software as part of their ongoing commitment to student safety. This innovative technology is designed to complement existing security measures, which include secure entrances and the presence of school resource officers.
The decision to integrate AI gun detection comes amid growing concerns over school safety and the need for more effective responses to potential threats. The software will monitor for firearms on school premises and alert authorities in real-time, allowing for swift action if necessary.
Spina emphasized that the well-being of students and staff is the top priority, stating that the new system is a proactive step towards creating a safer learning environment. With this addition, Williamston schools aim to foster a sense of security among students and parents, reinforcing their dedication to maintaining a safe educational atmosphere.
