Burke County Public Schools to Implement Wand Metal Detectors and Clear Bag Rules

As part of our ongoing commitment to school safety, starting with Patton High School’s home varsity game on Friday, Oct. 17, Burke County Public Schools will implement the use of handheld wand metal detectors at the entry gates. Starting next week, for all home high school JV and varsity football games, in addition to the wand detectors, BCPS will follow a clear bag only procedure.

Technology Fee 2024-2025

All students are required to pay the technology device fee for the 2024-2025 school year.

High School Students kept their devices over the summer, but still need to pay the technology fee! If they returned their device for the summer, they can pick it up in the media center.

Freshmen will be getting new devices.

It is $25 technology free for one student, $50 for two or more.

To avoid the wait, you can pay online MySchoolBucks.com (you may need to create a new account).

If you have any questions, please reach out to Whitney Lawson (media coordinator) @ whitneylawson@burke.k12.nc.us
