AREA FIVE MASTER PLAN COMMUNITY INPUT MEETINGS

School Board members previewed this plan during their August 25 meeting.

Good morning, Jackson STEM Magnet Middle School Families,
I would like to provide a brief update concerning this past Monday’s lockdown incident. The person responsible for the threatening post was quickly identified by law enforcement Monday, and the situation has been resolved. It was concluded that there was no real threat to school safety at any time. However, school safety is always our number one priority, and any such incident will always be investigated thoroughly.
Thank you for your continued support.
Brenda DeLoache, Principal
