Earlier today, Angleton High School administration received a report of a social media post that was threatening in nature. AHS administration and Angleton ISD Police have investigated the report and found it not to be a credible threat directed at Angleton High School. The social media post that was shared was made toward a school around Albuquerque, New Mexico. Again, our investigation has found no threat directed at our Angleton High School.
We want to assure you that we take every report seriously and investigate every report thoroughly. We are committed to maintaining a safe and secure learning environment for our students and staff, and their safety remains our top priority.
We continue to ask parents to talk with their children about the seriousness of making threatening comments of any kind. There are serious consequences for making threatening comments in person or online. AISD will follow the Student Code of Conduct to determine appropriate consequences for students who make threats or threatening comments, which may include placement at an alternative campus. Also, law enforcement will be involved to determine any legal consequences.
We ask students and parents to report any concerns immediately through one of the district’s reporting resources:
Contact or tell a campus administrator.
Contact or tell the AISD Police (979-997-7220).
Use the Anonymous Alerts system through the app or by clicking https://report.anonymousalerts.com/angletonisd/ or by visiting the AISD website and going to Keep AISD Safe (See it, Report it).
Call Crime Stoppers at 800-460-2222.
We also ask students and parents to use these appropriate methods to communicate threats or issues. Communicating threats through social media creates more issues and concerns for our students, parents and staff.
If you have questions or concerns, please contact your child’s campus principal.
