CCPS Response to National Social Media Post:
We have been made aware of a social media post circulating regarding a possible threat to school buses. The Culpeper County Sheriff’s Office has confirmed that this post is widespread across the country and poses no credible threat to Culpeper County Public Schools.
Parents, please talk to your children and remind them to always report when they see concerning posts on social media, and not to repost them.
Today, we remember the lives lost at the World Trade Center, on Flight 93, and at the Pentagon and we honor the first responders, service members, and civil servants who were integral in rescue and recovery efforts - many of whom made the supreme sacrifice as a result. #September11 #NeverForget
