Miami-Dade County Public Schools reported that a student at Cypress K-8 Center allegedly made a threat on Friday. However, after investigation, the threat was determined to be non-credible. Consequently, the student was permitted to return to the school.
Miami-Dade County Public Schools (M-DCPS) is aware of a threat that was reported involving Cypress K-8 Center late last week. The school’s administration immediately notified Miami-Dade Schools Police and after investigating, the threat was deemed non-credible. The incident will be handled administratively in adherence to the Code of Student Conduct. Threats of any kind will be taken seriously, and we urge parents to speak to their children about the importance of reporting suspicious activity.
According to 7News, a mother, who wished to remain anonymous, revealed that a seventh-grade student made the threat.
According to the mother, the student who supposedly made the threat has had previous troubles.
According to the mother, there seems to be an ongoing issue with the child drawing guns on paper last year. The school, unfortunately, has not provided any answers regarding this matter. The mother expresses concern about the child’s presence in the same class as her own child, as there is uncertainty about whether they will still be together. The children in the school are frightened and upset, leading to tears and a reluctance to attend school.
According to parents, the school did send out a standard voice message reassuring that there was no threat.
According to the mother, they supposedly went to the kid’s house and claimed that there were no guns there. They dismissed the incident as non-credible due to the absence of guns. The mother mentioned that the kid may have denied making such a statement, but other children had heard it.
Some parents are not taking the situation lightly, despite the school’s assurance that there is no threat. What has heightened their concern is the fact that it was a theme day at the school, with students donning their favorite cowboy and western outfits.
