Dallas ISD Police and the school administration are investigating an incident where a threat against the school was posted on social media. Out of an abundance of caution, we have requested support from Dallas ISD Police. It is not clear who is responsible for the threat, but we are hopeful they become known to be held responsible for their actions.
