Westport Schools: Investigation Continues; No Active Threat Reported

Dear Families,

 

This morning a call was made to the Westport Police Department WPD) that warranted a lockdown at Staples High School.  As a precaution, Bedford Middle School was placed in a “shelter in place”.  The WPD is on scene at this moment investigating and the building is secure.  When a school is in a lockdown or “shelter in place”, no visitors are allowed on campus.  All district schools have implemented safety procedures until this matter is resolved.
