important announcement

This morning at 9:47 AM, North Surry High School received an anonymous tip that there was a potential weapon on campus.  Principal Paige Badgett immediately placed the school on lockdown to investigate along with the Surry County Sheriff's Office. Law enforcement acted quickly and swiftly to ensure the safety and well-being of all students. At approximately 10:15 AM, law enforcement moved the school from lockdown to shelter in place (students remain in the classroom and resume instruction).  

I want to assure you that our top priority is the safety and well-being of all our students and staff, and we take all necessary precautions to ensure everyone’s safety.
