A large school district in Georgia will allow some employees who are not certified police officers to carry guns on campus, but the policy does not include teachers and staff whose primary responsibility is supervising classrooms.

During a school board meeting on Thursday, members of the Cobb County Board of Education voted 4–2 to approve the policy, which is intended to hire more people and improve security in Georgia’s second-largest school district.
