Dear Parents and Guardians,
Today, school administration received a report that a student may have been in possession of a dangerous weapon on school property. School administrators and security personnel immediately responded, and the student was located and searched. A weapon was recovered.
The situation was addressed promptly through the cooperation of school administration, school security personnel, and the Boone County Sheriff’s Department. At no time was the weapon brandished or used to threaten another individual, and no students were endangered during the incident.
Appropriate disciplinary and law enforcement procedures are being followed. Because this matter involves a student, we cannot provide additional details regarding the student involved.
We take all reports involving weapons or potential threats seriously and will continue to respond immediately when concerns are brought to our attention. We appreciate the cooperation of our students, staff, security personnel, and law enforcement in helping maintain a safe school environment.
Sincerely,
Amy Hale, Principal
Scott High School
