The school resource officer was notified and School staff was advised of the situation. The entire school district was placed on lockdown while deputies responded and investigated. Through investigation it was found that a male student had a hand-held massager that resembled a handgun. The student in possession of the massager admitted that he Possessed it in the restroom and pointed it at another student.
There was no active shooter and all students are safe.
All schools are in the process of being  taken off lockdown status
Please be patient as we work through returning to normal operations
