LAWRENCEBURG, TN – There was an incident on the campus of Lawrence County High School today that involved a verbal threat of violence by two of our students. When the incident was reported to administration an immediate and thorough investigation ensued. Upon completion of that investigation by administration and our SROs, a determination was made to arrest both students. There was never a threat of imminent harm to our student body today.
LCHS would like to remind all students that any threats of violence will be dealt with swiftly, and appropriate action and discipline will be taken each time. LCHS also encourages parents to discuss with their children the need to recognize that LCHS will take all threats of violence seriously and the expectation that our school demands that our students comply with those directives.
