Duncanville ISD changes entrance policy for football games after threats
SUMMARY: Recent violent acts and false threats have prompted changes in local athletic events. Some districts altered game schedules and implemented new security measures. Duncanville ISD introduced an admission policy requiring students to have current IDs and be accompanied by a parent. This decision was made after receiving threats similar to those reported at other nearby schools. Increased security has been implemented across campuses, and communication with parents has emphasized monitoring children’s social media. The community remains shaken by recent violence, including the shooting deaths of two students. Duncanville ISD plans to reassess the admission policy as the season progresses.

District superintendent Lamar Goree told FOX 4 the policy was put in place out of an abundance of caution after false threats to schools across the area.
