To All Prince Edward Families:
We were made aware of a social media message regarding a possible threat to our schools as well as a few other divisions in our area. We have been in contact with the sheriff's office and are taking precautions by increasing law enforcement presence on our campus.
While we know this is concerning to you, we understand that you have to make decisions about your child attending school tomorrow, Thursday, September 12, 2024.
Just as a reminder, if you hear or see something, please say something. Thank you.
On this day, we remember and honor the heroes and lives lost on September 11, 2001. 🕊️ #NeverForget
