Traci Fant first brought attention to adding metal detectors in schools in 2016 and then again in 2018.

Today, Fant reposted her petition for metal detectors to her Facebook page after 12-year-old Jamari Jackson was killed in a shooting at Tanglewood Middle School.

At a Greenville County Board meeting in 2016, officials listened to the parents but did not believe metal detectors were the answer to keeping students safe.
