The Paulding County School District, in partnership with Paulding County Government and the Paulding County Sheriff's Office, is producing a series of public service announcement videos about the ongoing epidemic of students making both verbal and online threats to school safety. These threats have become especially prolific since the tragedy at Apalachee High School in Barrow County on September 4th. The lesson of these videos is that any type of message that threatens the safety of students and staff, whether spoken or posted online, and whether intended seriously or not, is no joke and will result in serious consequences. The first PSA video, linked below, deals with verbal threats. The second video will address online threats, and the third video will address how students should respond when they see or hear threats to school safety. We will share the next two videos in the coming weeks as they are released. All middle and high school students will see the first video today.
