Dear Parents/Guardians,

It has come to our attention that a student made a threatening statement during school hours that has raised concerns for the safety and well-being of others within our school community. At no time were students in danger and the school did not go on lockdown.

At Elliott County High School, the safety of our students and staff is our top priority, and we take any threat, whether verbal or physical, very seriously. As part of our protocol, we immediately took steps to ensure that the matter was addressed, including involving appropriate school officials and, as necessary, local authorities. Additionally, we are working closely to fully understand the context of the situation and to address any underlying concerns that may have contributed to this behavior.

We kindly ask for your cooperation as we continue to work diligently to ensure the safety of students and staff. 

Sincerely,
Dolly Fannin
Superintendent
Elliott County Schools
