Lockdown

We had a lockdown incident at school on Wednesday. Guns scare me. I don't like stuff like thise. Luckily this time, it turned out to be nothing. Here is the official letter sent home with parents and students.

"September 12, 2007


Dear Tooele High Students, Faculty and Staff:


This morning at approximately 7:45a.m. administration was notified that a student was seen on campus with a gun. At that time we immediately began pervasive procedures. The student and weapon, which was a plastic toy gun, were identified and there was no immediate threat to anyone at our school. District disciplinary procedures have been implemented.


Thank you so much for your cooperation and for following lock-down procedures. We really appreciate the student who reported the incident.


Safety is a top priority for us at Tooele High School. We appreciate the cooperation and efforts of our students, faculty, and staff during this incident.



Kendall Topham, Principal
Tooele High School"

I remember in jr high we had a 'code (insert girls name I've apparently forgotten)'. I remember being locked down in my boring english class for over an hour and a half. Turns out a kid had brought a gun to school. He was brilliant! He decided the best place to carry said gun was in his pants. It went off while he was in shop class, narrowly missing... his zipper.
