The Superintendent of the Pine Bluff and Dollarway School Districts said Friday that the shooting incident at Watson Chapel Junior High School also impacted the districts she runs. Barbara Warren spoke to Deltaplex News and was asked about security systems and protocol.

Like the Watson Chapel School District, the Pine Bluff and Dollarway School Districts do not have school resource officers because of a manpower shortage in the police department. However, Warren said there is some security present in both districts.

On Thursday, Doug Dorris, superintendent of the White Hall School District said his district has (metal detectors) and Warren said both Pine Bluff and Dollarway also have wands but also they have some walk through metal detectors.
