On Monday night, a threat to students at Liberal High School was posted on social media. Law enforcement was immediately notified, and the threat has been addressed.
While this is a very serious situation, there is no longer a concern of an active threat for our students.
We understand your concerns and assure you that the safety of our students and staff is our top priority.
Thank you for your understanding.
