Mustang Family News for 1/13/22
News for students & families of Margarita Middle School
Welcome to January!
Hello Mustang Families!
Over the last several weeks, schools across the nation have seen a significant increase in the number of threats made toward school sites. The threats have ranged from students claiming they were going to carry out a school shooting to claiming they were in possession of a bomb. Thankfully, most threats are quickly determined to not be valid. In many cases, students claim to be making a "joke" when questioned.
Every single threat we are made aware of here at Margarita Middle School is taken very seriously. An investigation by the Riverside County Sheriff's Department and staff is immediately
conducted.
We can’t stress enough the seriousness of making threats in anger or "joking" at school, online, or any other setting. Due to the amount of disruption these threats cause, we want students to know that they will face discipline, ranging from suspension to expulsion and even criminal charges for making these types of threats, even if they are joking.
As we have shared before, we urge you to report. If you see something or hear something, say something. Let us know so we can make sure that all students and staff here at Margarita Middle School are safe and secure.
Sincerely,
Mr. Duane Legg
Principal, MMS
