Concerning Social Media Post

Posted Date: 01/02/24 (06:48 AM)


Good morning,

We have been in contact with Redmond Police Department about a concerning social media post that appears to threaten many schools in the area. Our law enforcement partners have recommended to continue school as usual and will be providing an extra presence in our buildings today as a precaution. As always, parents and guardians are encouraged to make the decision they believe is best for their children.

Hello everyone,

We have received an update from law enforcement partners stating that the social media post was traced and found to have originated in Portland, OR. The message that was distributed online among the Central Oregon region included a photo of a rifle and a vague message about not going to school. This post was not targeted at any specific schools and specific threats were not included in the original post. The photo from the post was also determined to be over a week old. Redmond police will continue to provide an extra presence at our schools today. We are grateful for the diligent efforts of law enforcement to investigate all threats in a measure to provide our students and staff with a safe learning environment.
