Spartanburg, South Carolina School District 6 Enhances School Safety With Free-Flow Weapons Detection Powered by Evolv Express®

The Spartanburg, South Carolina District 6 School District prides itself on being forward-thinking and progressive. Its unwavering commitment to its students and local community doesn’t stop with academics. Keeping its students and staff safe from threats is also a top priority for the district. Dr. Mark Smith who has served the district for 24 years as a teacher, principal, and administrator said "We’ve all witnessed the tragedy of school shootings over the years, and it is our worst nightmare.” Smith and other members of the team started vetting walk-through metal detectors as an option, and for many reasons landed on Evolv. Through implementing Evolv Express, Spartanburg School District Six was able to achieve the following and more:  

  • Completed average bagcheck in less than 20 seconds by pinpointing the potential area of the weapon in real-time.
  • Sustained always-on weapons detection and screening without any security queues.
  • Ensured student safety with weapons detection and screening while getting them to their classrooms on time.
