Good afternoon,
Thank you to all MSD of Martinsville staff, students, and parents who reached out this morning concerning a social media re-post referencing a generic threat, which did not list a specific MSD of Martinsville school. Multiple districts received the same threat; therefore, the MSD of Martinsville Police and administrators contacted surrounding school districts and concluded the threat is not credible or targeting the MSD of Martinsville.
As a reminder, all rumors, threats, investigations are taken seriously and will implement heightened safety measures during investigations.
Families, please take a moment and share the importance of reporting rumors and/or threats to administration and police to assist with the safety of our schools. Unfortunately, this is not an uncommon occurrence in schools. We are committed to providing a safe and secure learning environment and will continue to review our protocols involving threats and student security.
We will remain vigilant to our commitment to the MSD of Martinsville student and staff safety.
Thank you.
