Secure hold lifted at South Rowan High School
ROWAN COUNTY, N.C. (QUEEN CITY NEWS) — South Rowan High School was placed on a secure hold for about an hour and a half on Wednesday following reports of a gun on campus.
Rowan-Salisbury Schools said an “inappropriate item” was found. While some reports indicated a gun may have been found, school officials have not confirmed that detail.
Principal Jennifer Brayley shared a message with families:
“Today, we received a report and investigated an incident of an inappropriate item on our campus. The situation was handled immediately and appropriately by administrators, with the assistance of the school resource officer and local law enforcement.”
School officials said during a secure hold, students and staff stay inside the building, and no one is allowed to enter, but learning continues.
Brayley praised the students who spoke up and asked parents to use the moment as a reminder to check their children’s belongings.
“Some items held harmless at home are not appropriate in the school environment and may result in disciplinary action,” she said.
