8th Grade Parents: we had an incident today where we had a student write an unsubstantiated threat against 8 students in a bathroom stall. We are calling the parents of those 8 students. Out of an abundance of caution, we will have an increased law enforcement presence on campus Monday. All 8th graders will have restricted backpack access in all classes out of precaution. Please talk with students about the seriousness of making threats against other students and the consequences of their actions. They will be prosecuted to the full extent of the law.
