A post-lockdown safety search was conducted with drone units, helicopters and K9 officers, Ford said, and no threat was found.DCPS said this means that the dismissal process “will be slower and take more time than normal.” Here are the three messages that DCPS sent to parents:Hello First Coast High School families, this is Duval County Public Schools calling. First, I want to assure you that all students and staff are safe. Again, all students and staff are safe.
However, the school is on lockdown. It has been reported that the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office received an anonymous phone call threatening a shooting at the school. JSO and Duval County School Police are on campus investigating this report. I remind you that while the school is on lockdown, no one is allowed to enter or leave the school, so please do not come to the school at this time. We will continue to keep you updated.
In collaboration with law enforcement, we have conducted a thorough search of the school and reviewed security camera footage. Nothing of concern or alarm has been discovered. However, in an abundance of caution, we are going to remain in a lockdown status and implement a controlled dismissal. We will also continue to have additional law enforcement personnel on campus. We do ask, again, that you do not come to the campus at this time.
Again, please do not come to the campus now, but feel free to come at dismissal if you want to do so. We will follow normal traffic patterns and release students in a controlled manner. That means that the dismissal process will be slower and take more time than normal, so please be patient. Thank you for your patience and cooperation as we take the steps necessary to keep our students and staff safe.
