Dear Galatia School families,

Tonight, we were made aware of a possible threat of violence, took immediate safety precautions and immediately contacted police to investigate the incident.

At this time, we have been assured by law enforcement that students and staff are safe and after investigation found that a student was in possession of an air soft gun. Nevertheless, student and staff safety is our top priority, and we will continue to closely monitor this situation.

The student who made this threat has been identified and is being dealt with through the disciplinary process of the school and could face possible legal action. We cannot provide more detail about this incident because of student privacy laws and because the investigation is ongoing.

We take all threats seriously. Again, after consultation with local authorities, we are confident that school is safe at this time.

I want to thank the Saline County Sheriff's Department and everyone who had a part in quickly resolving this situation.
Sincerely,

Shain Crank
Superintendent
