Hutchinson School Officials have sent a message to parents of Hutchinson Middle School 7, about an incident that happened at the school Thursday. School Spokesman Ray Hemman said he couldn’t provide further details about the incident which apparently involved a student threatening others, but says it does underscore the importance of “see/hear something – say something” for student safety.

Thursday morning,  a student made a threat to harm other students at HMS-7. Hutchinson police were called and the threat was investigated. The message indicates that the student had been disciplined in accordance with district policy and will be receiving any needed assistance.

The message also states that school officials take all threats seriously. Because students responded correctly by alerting staff, they were able to work with local law enforcement to ensure everyone’s safety.

No one was injured.
