Midlothian High School put into hold to investigate report of ‘threatening language’
Staff at Midlothian High School put the campus on hold Monday after officials received reports of threatening language, officials said in a press release.
While there was no active incident, the hold was put in place out of an abundance of caution while school officials investigated the threat, the release said.
Students were confined to their classrooms and parents were given updates on the progress of the investigation.
Students with an end-of-day free period were allowed to leave in what the district called a “controlled release.”
Those with classes were kept on campus until school let out at 4 p.m.
