This is a follow up on the school threat from last evening. Law enforcement is continuing to investigate the matter. Students and staff are to remain home today and participate in e-learning. I will update you with more information at a later time today.
The Georgetown Ridge Farm District was made aware this evening, of a social media threat that was made toward the high school. Law enforcement is currently investigating. Students and staff should be prepared for an E-learning day if necessary. We will follow up with an announcement at 6:30 AM tomorrow. We will only return to school if it is safe to do so.
