Community Update - Lockdown Explanation:
On Thursday, April 18, at approximately 2:20PM a local resident, adjacent to CPS/CES, was attempting to kill a snake in their own backyard using a firearm. The sound of gunfire caused obvious alarm, resulting in a school-wide lockdown. Calhoun Police, partnered with other local agencies, had a swift and immediate response to the event and are currently addressing the actions of the individual. At this time, the school is on a regular dismissal and there is no threat to student safety. We thank our school officials and local law enforcement for their constant support of our students.

Calhoun City Schools will operate on a 2-hour delay, today, January 9, 2024. We want to ensure the safety of our students, staff, and community members, and we encourage you to exercise caution when traveling. Please adjust your child's drop-off time by adding two hours to their regular schedule. Additionally, buses will run two hours behind their usual route times.
We encourage parents, staff and our young drivers to exercise extreme caution on our roads.
Again, students and staff should arrive two hours later than they would on a regular school day. Busses will operate on a two-hour delay.
UPDATE (1:50 pm): Calhoun Middle and High School are no longer in lockdown. The lockdown was initiated due to a threatening post on social media. The post was found to be dated from years prior; however, in an abundance of caution, local law enforcement searched areas of the facility and students were held in lockdown. Thank you to everyone for your support as we work to guarantee the safety of our children.
The campus of Calhoun Middle and High School is currently under a lockdown while police investigate a concerning social media posting. We will post as soon as the lockdown is lifted.
