ATTENTION: Several Laredo ISD schools were placed on Lockdown and Secure mode on Thursday afternoon in response to rumors of a possible criminal act. This included Martin High School, Christen Middle School, Leyendecker Elementary School, and the LISD Performing Arts Complex.
Laredo ISD police officers and local law enforcement officials responded within minutes of the report and checked every classroom and hallway at MHS.
Two students associated with this threat and have been detained. No injuries have been reported and no weapons were found on campus as was initially reported.
LISD encourages anyone with knowledge about threats, whether they are credible or not, to immediately inform school administration or another trusted adult on
campus.
Parents are asked to talk to their children about the serious nature of making threats because those words can lead to significant legal consequences. It is also important to remind students to report suspicious or concerning behavior rather than sharing information on social media.
The safety, protection, and well-being of its students and staff is the highest priority at LISD.

Esto incluía la preparatoria Martin, la secundaria Christen, la escuela Primaria Leyendecker y el Complejo de Artes Escénicas de LISD.
Los agentes de policía del distrito escolar de Laredo ISD y las autoridades locales respondieron en cuestión de minutos a checar todas las aulas y pasillos en la preparatoria Martin.
Dos estudiantes asociados a esta amenaza han sido detenidos. No se han reportado heridos ni se encontraron armas en el campus como se había informado inicialmente.
LISD anima a cualquier persona con conocimiento sobre amenazas, sean creíbles o no, a informar inmediatamente a la administración escolar u otro adulto de confianza sobre
campus.
Se pide a los padres que hablen con sus hijos sobre la gravedad de las amenazas porque esas palabras pueden conllevar consecuencias legales graves. También es importante recordar a los estudiantes que reporten comportamientos sospechosos o preocupantes en lugar de compartir información en redes sociales.
La seguridad, protección y bienestar de sus estudiantes y personal es la máxima prioridad en LISD.
