Threat examinations at the Hardin-Jefferson High School, student sure

If Lake, Texas police and school officers have found that the Hardin-Jefferson High School is secure after a non-specified threat to the campus, according to the Hardin-Jefferson school district.

“In connection with the law enforcement authorities, the administrators found that the campus is safe and the students are safe,” said the district on Thursday.

District officers confirmed that they actively examine the type of threat, but did not provide any specific details about when the threat was provided or what it brought with them.

“The district takes all threatening statements seriously and will tackle them so far,” continued the explanation.

School administrators have asked the parents to discuss the severity of the threat of their children and to emphasize the potential consequences of such actions.

“We ask the parents to talk to their children about the serious consequences of the threat – these actions have significant legal effects,” warned the district.

No information was given whether suspects were identified or whether disciplinary or legal measures were taken at this point.

The TIP line and the App Crime Stopers are available and were used by students and parents to report school threats, according to Jeremy Raley, director of Crime Stopper.

He says it is good for children and employees to know that the app is always available and that everyone can report on the behavior that they may be too scared to speak personally.

“It is another tool in the school's tool bag and the students because they learn a lot more than they give up. They are near the students all day,” said Raley.

It is also important for the parents to ensure that they are aware of what is published on social media after Raley.

“Do you have this relationship with your child in this way when it sees something you can not feel comfortable with that you can contact you and report it,” said Raley.
