Thank you for helping us make our school the best it can be! 💙
Thanks to the quick response of our Medical Emergency Response Team and Demopolis EMS, the situation is under control and operations have returned to normal.
Beginning Monday, August 18, sweatpants and joggers will no longer be part of the approved dress code. We appreciate your understanding and ask that students make any necessary wardrobe adjustments before that date. Thank you for helping us maintain a positive and professional school environment.
Today, the Demopolis Police Department received a series of calls threatening Westside Elementary. The FBI is involved in the investigation, and at this time, we believe the threats were a hoax. At no point was there an intruder on any of our campuses. We will continue working closely with local law enforcement and the FBI to identify the individual responsible.
Out of an abundance of caution, there will be an increased police presence at all campuses tomorrow. We plan to operate on our normal schedule.
We would like to extend our sincere thanks to the Demopolis Police Department, Drug Task Force, local FBI, Fire and Rescue, central office staff, school administrators, school resource officers, and faculty and staff for responding to today’s unplanned lockdown and dismissal with professionalism, calm, and care. Your swift actions and unwavering commitment ensured the safety and support of our students at all four campuses.
We are also incredibly grateful to our parents and guardians for your patience, cooperation, and understanding throughout the dismissal process. Your support makes all the difference.
Together, we kept safety and calm at the forefront.
Again, WE WILL OPERATE ON A NORMAL SCHEDULE TOMORROW , Friday, Aug 8.
Let’s start fresh and have a great year!
Because of a threat that was called in to the Demopolis Police Department, we will dismiss all students at this time. Students will be dismissed one at a time in a slow and orderly fashion. Please note ALL STUDENTS are safe. This is being done out of an abundance of caution.
Thank you for your cooperation in helping us keep all children safe.
Please be patient as we conduct this dismissal.
All four campuses of Demopolis City Schools are on a lockdown at this time. This is being done out of an abundance of caution because of a threat situation at one of the schools. All schools and students are safe. We will notify you when the lockdown is lifted.
