Parents, we are aware of the threats being posted on social media sites regarding gun violence in schools today.  

We want to let you know all is well at school this morning. Kids and staff are enjoying their day and excited for the official start of Winter Break.

However, please know that, at Lyle School, we take all threats seriously and have zero tolerance for them, whether students claim to be joking or not.  

Students have been reminded of this recently. We encourage you to talk to your students about this topic, too.   

We also want to remind all students and parents/guardians, when you hear of a threat, report it to us or law enforcement. Please do not repost it. Reposting a threat serves no purpose other than adding to the fear and uncertainty of the situation.
