At approximately 12:42 p.m., a teacher at Sacaton Middle School notified the office that a student had reported another student may be in possession of a weapon. In response, at 12:49 p.m., school administration initiated a “Secure” status for all classrooms to ensure the safety of students and staff.
The Middle School Principal immediately contacted the Gila River Police Department, and the school transitioned to a “Lockdown” while law enforcement conducted a thorough investigation. Police officers secured the campus and performed individual classroom searches.
No weapons were found. All students and staff are safe.
At 1:30 p.m., the Lockdown was lifted, and the school remained in a “Secure” status until 1:55 p.m. Parents and guardians were kept informed throughout the process via text and phone communication. Dismissal procedures began on schedule at 2:00 p.m.
The safety and well-being of our students and staff remain our highest priority. We sincerely thank our parents, staff, students, and the Gila River Police Department for their support, patience, and cooperation during today’s incident.
