Very late in the school day today Wednesday. November 15, 2023 Local law enforcement alerted us to a threat near the hilltop. In response, Harrison County Schools quickly enacted comprehensive safety protocols, including rerouting transportation, implementing walking restrictions, and making adjustments to after-school activities. The details of these actions were communicated as promptly as possible to all staff, students, and the community. We are anticipating updates from the Cynthiana Police Department, and we expect the situation to be resolved today. As new information emerges, updates will be provided. We appreciate your patience and swift responses from parents, staff, and the community, emphasizing that the safety of Harrison County Students remains our top priority.

For safety purposes after school activities that start immediately after the school day end will continue as normal. Activities that start after 4 of which you would return to the school to participate in will be canceled.

We have been notified by law enforcement of a community situation that has prompted the implementation of safety measures for students. The message indicates that, as of this afternoon, specific guidelines will be followed until further guidance is received from the local law enforcement. Here is a breakdown of the information: Transportation: Busses will still be transporting students as normal but they will follow rerouted paths which could cause a delayed drop-off. Walking Restriction: No Students will be allowed to walk, This is to ensure that students are kept within a controlled and secure environment. Parents of Middle School and High School walkers may pick up their student at the school or they will be released when the all clear is given. The decision to implement these measures is based on prioritizing the safety of the student population in the community. It is important to follow the guidelines until further information or guidance is provided by local law enforcement. We will keep you informed.
