@isd840 #StJamesMSHS students from Gary Blom's advisory class visited and read to #NorthsideStJ Kindergarten students this morning.
It is always a Homecoming Week favorite for #NorthsideStJ students when the @sjasaints come to play football. #SaintsPride Go Saints!
Saints,
Ayer, las Escuelas Públicas de St. James trabajaron con el Departamento de Policía de St. James y el condado de Watonwan en una amenaza en la que un estudiante decía que iba a traer un arma al partido de fútbol americano. Durante las entrevistas y el trabajo directo con la familia, se determinó que no era una amenaza creíble.
A última hora de la tarde de ayer, se realizó una publicación preocupante en las redes sociales. Los estudiantes nuevamente alertaron a la administración. Trabajamos directamente con el Departamento de Policía de St. James, el condado de Watonwan y la familia anoche y esta mañana para realizar entrevistas y evaluar la situación.
En este momento, sabemos que nuestras escuelas son seguras y esperamos con ansias un partido de fútbol americano seguro y emocionante esta noche. El Departamento de Policía de St. James y el condado de Watonwan serán visibles en la escuela y sus alrededores, así como durante el partido de fútbol. Queremos asegurarle que la seguridad y la protección son la máxima prioridad para todos. La persona involucrada no asistirá y trabajaremos con la familia en el futuro.
Quiero felicitar personalmente a nuestros estudiantes por alertar de inmediato a la administración y al resto del personal de la escuela para que pudiéramos reaccionar rápidamente.
Con orgullo Santos,
Dr. Steven Heil, Superintendente
Saints,
Yesterday, St. James Public Schools worked with the St. James Police Department and Watonwan County on a threat where a student said they were going to bring a weapon to the football game. During interviews and working directly with the family, it was determined that it was not a credible threat.
Late yesterday evening, a concerning social media post was made. Students again alerted administration. We worked directly with the St. James Police Department, Watonwan County, and the family last night along with earlier this morning to do interviews and assess the situation.
At this time, we know our schools to be safe and we are looking forward to a safe and exciting football game tonight. St. James Police Department and Watonwan County will be visible at and around school as well as the football game. We want to assure you that safety and security are a top priority for everyone. The individual involved will not be in attendance and we will be working with the family in the future.
I want to personally commend our students for immediately alerting administration and other school personnel so we could react swiftly.
In Saints pride,
Dr. Steven Heil, Superintendent
