This morning, Dec. 2, a false Code Red sent the school into lockdown. Principal Maggie Walls sent out an email to students and families at 9:06 a.m. regarding the lockdown:

“This morning, we had a code red lockdown inadvertently issued by a staff member. One of our staff members accidently [sic] sent an alert through their security badge. The students and teachers responded very quickly in following our lockdown protocols. At no time were faculty or students in danger.”

The code red lockdown was very terrifying. I hope it does not happen again. I pray for everyone’s safety.🫶🙏
