Thank you to our administrators, faculty, staff, and law enforcement for their quick action in keeping our children safe!
Go Jags! ❤️🖤
Yesterday morning, West Florida High School received a threat against the safety and security of our campus. As a result, we commenced our lockdown procedures, in an abundance of caution. The Escambia County Sheriff's Department and ECPS security personnel responded immediately, and were able to sweep and secure the campus in a timely manner. Law enforcement was able to deem the threat non-credible.
We are grateful for our partners in law enforcement and will work hand in hand with them until we discover and hold accountable those who would threaten our campuses. Rest assured, we take all threats against our campuses very seriously. We urge parents to have pointed conversations with their students about the seriousness of this type of behavior.
We sincerely appreciate the seriousness and professionalism with which our staff and students handled this unfortunate event. While we detest these kinds of disruptions, we are proud of the way our Jag Family reacted in a stressful situation. Keeping our students and staff safe and secure is our number one priority, and we take this responsibility very seriously.
