SCHOOL SAFETY UPDATE - 9/11/2024 , 9:36pm
Cullman County Schools and Superintendent Dr. Shane Barnette are providing this update on school safety as we strive to be as transparent as possible. Two students were arrested in our school system today (Wednesday 9/11/24); one for making threatening statements in class and the other for possessing a vape which contained illegal drugs. "Both of these arrests are the result of thorough investigations and we are holding students accountable for their actions, like I said we would do and we will continue to do," said Barnette.
There are also rumors circulating about schools being on a "target list". After an investigation, this so-called "target list" is actually a government document being circulated online which lists schools that are "Target Assistance" schools for Federal Title I funding. It has nothing to do with a threat, but has been shared as such.
"I want to challenge you that if you don't know about something first hand, and you hear of something, take it to an administrator so we can investigate it," said Barnette.
At this time we know of no threats against any of our schools or the school system, but we will be in a state of heightened awareness due to the events of the past few days.
We will provide additional updates as needed. Thank you for your continued support, cooperation and trust.
Thank you for your continued cooperation this week as we have investigated - and continue to investigate - any and all online posts and/or social media threats in our school system. Your student's safety and security continues to be our top priority. Your students are safe and buildings are secure.
Please continue to stress to your child that if they see or hear something to immediately disclose it to a school administrator or resource officer. Doing the alternative... sharing with other students and social media... does nothing but cause panic and confusion.
We appreciate your cooperation, support, and trust.
Cullman County Schools
We're taking a few weeks off now that our county teams are in region play and on the road. We'll be back October 4 for Vinemont's only in-county matchup, which is with the Hanceville Bulldogs! Watch Friday Night Lights at 6:30pm . We're enjoying covering our county teams!
Dr. Barnette and the CCBOE would like to congratulate Sarah Bates! Sarah recently completed the High School Diploma Option through the Adult Education Program at Wallace State. Sarah was supposed to graduate in 2001 from Hanceville High, but a single section of the since-retired Alabama High School Graduation Exam stood in the way. Her family reached out to Dr. Barnette to see if there were any options, and he told them about the program. It's never too late to achieve your dreams!
