Dear CSISD Parents / Guardians:
As you may have seen in the news, an A&M Consolidated High School student was arrested Saturday for making a terroristic threat on social media. As soon as we learned about the threatening post, we contacted the College Station Police Department, which quickly investigated the situation. According to CSPD, the case is still under investigation but there is no danger to students.
In an abundance of caution, we are working with the Brazos County Sheriff’s Office to have an increased law enforcement presence at and around our high school campuses.
Please know that we take any report that is threatening to our staff and students seriously and work closely with local law enforcement to investigate and take appropriate action.
Please take an opportunity to talk to your student(s) about speaking up if they feel threatened or notice something that does not seem right. There are a couple ways to do this. The first would be to tell a teacher or administrator. If your student does not feel comfortable speaking to a staff member, we have an anonymous tip line called “Quick Tip” located on the home page of each CSISD campus website. When submitting a tip, please make sure to give specific information so we can follow up effectively and accurately.
Student and staff safety continues to be our top priority.
Sincerely,
Clark Ealy, CSISD Superintendent of Schools
