BGS Parents,
Today, we received information regarding a school threat posted by a student to TikTok. BGS officials along with Benton PD quickly responded and detained the student. It turns out there was no intention of a real threat by the student. However, this case, along with all similar past and future cases, will have severe consequences for those involved. Parents, please make sure your students understand in today’s world threats are not something you joke about. All threats will be taken seriously and will have real and impactful consequences for those posting such information. The safety of our students will continue to be our top priority at BGS. Thank you.
