Stakeholders of Murray Independent Schools,
Today (Tuesday, January 17, 2023), the administration of Murray High School was made aware of a possible threatening statement. After obtaining the information, the School Resource Officer began an investigation into the validity of the threat. After review, the statement was attributed to a MHS student which led to implementation of the school district disciplinary procedures.
The Murray Independent School District would like to inform families there were no threatening statements made toward specific students or staff. Murray High School was never in jeopardy and would like to remind everyone that threatening statements should never be made and such statements have consequences.
MISD would like to thank the Murray Police Department and Calloway County Sheriff’s Office for their assistance in this matter.
All district schools and programs will continue normal operations on Wednesday, January 18, 2023.
Kindest Regards,
Coy D. Samons, Superintendent
