Wynne School District Announces Enhanced Security Measures for High School Events
Dear Wynne School District Community,
We take the safety and enjoyment of all attendees at our high school sporting and extracurricular events seriously. As the Wynne High School Campus and Yellowjacket Stadium are currently undergoing construction, we have decided to implement further safety procedures. When you attend events on campus this season, you will encounter enhanced security measures. These measures are designed to create a secure and enjoyable environment for everyone participating in and attending our extracurricular events.
Wynne School District Clear Bag Policy
Permitted Bags:

Medical Exceptions:
Guests with medically necessary items must undergo proper inspection. These items will be allowed inside after a thorough screening.
Entry Screening:
All individuals entering our venues will also undergo a security screening process, including passing through a metal detector (magnetometer). This ensures a safe space for all attendees, aligning with best practices observed at other performing arts venues, arenas, and stadiums nationwide. We believe these security procedures contribute to an atmosphere where fans can enjoy the excitement of high school sports and extracurriculars while feeling confident in their safety. We ask fans to arrive early to ensure that the entry screening process is completed before the start of the event.
The Wynne School District appreciates your cooperation.
