it reads: Dear Parents and Guardians: Today it was reported that a student brought a handgun to campus. The school immediately enacted lockdown procedures in accordance with our emergency response plan as a precautionary measure. A suspect was taken into custody and removed from the campus. Law enforcement officials will continue the investigation.

Please understand that we take every accusation seriously and investigate all of them to the fullest extent possible. I want to commend the students and staff who followed the plan in a calm and orderly manner. The safety and security of our students and staff is always a priority at our school.

Sincerely, Dr. Fred Hayes, Principal Clear Creek High School.



- We were in lockdown for 3 hours....no one knew what was going on....after watching the news...found out that it was a BB gun that looks just like a handgun. :( Moral of the story....GUNS ARE BAD! :/
