Subject: Important update

Willow Spring High School families,

First, know that all students are safe.

I wanted to let you know about a false rumor that there is a threat to our school.

This rumor has no basis in fact. During the weekend, a rumor began circulating among our school community that a threat was made to our school. This information was reported to administration, WCPSS Security and the Fuquay-Varina Police Department. Law enforcement investigated the claim and have determined that no threats of any kind have been made.

Rumors of this kind make students, staff and families feel unsafe. Please remind your child that they should tell a trusted adult about any safety concerns they may have, rather than believe or spread rumors.

In addition, anyone may report any safety concerns to an administrator or to the district’s anonymous tip line at (919) 856-1911.

I am grateful for the quick and thorough response from law enforcement and WCPSS Security. We will continue to take every measure to ensure the safety of our students.

Thank you for your continued support of our school.
