As a follow up to Unioto families concerning the most recent potential school threat, know that the Ross County Sheriff’s Department continues to investigate any and all information related to the incident to ensure the safety of our students, staff, and school district. As a school district, we always communicate all we are legally able to and will provide updates when possible for our families. Every communication we provide in these types of situations is either reviewed by the law enforcement involved, by the school district’s legal counsel, or both. So, please understand we communicate everything we can at the time we do. Also, we involve law enforcement and legal counsel in every single school threat received. Furthermore, I am always available to address concerns from parents or community members via email, phone, or in person. Please do not hesitate to contact me directly with any questions you may have. We always want to do all we can to ensure the safety of our students, staff, and school district. If school is in session, we do not have any evidence to support a viable, credible threat to our school. If we did, we would cancel school. This most recent incident did not involve any students from our school district and has been addressed by law enforcement. Please know, we always work closely with law enforcement to protect the safety of our students and staff. As stated earlier, you can expect additional law enforcement in all of our buildings this week. A special thanks to our local Sheriff’s department for assisting us in these situations. Thank you.
