Important Announcement

The Lonoke Police Department, Lonoke School District, and the Lonoke County Sheriff’s Office have been working tirelessly on the investigation of the last week’s threat of school violence. We have located a juvenile suspect and they have been charged. We are still investigating the case. We will send out any updates, as we are able to. Please understand that these type of threats are fluid and we will do our best to keep everyone informed. If there are concerns or questions, please call the police department or school and watch our social media. This will help prevent any misinformation that could be spread. 

We want to remind everyone that making threats against schools is a serious matter and will be taken with the utmost severity. Anyone found to be making school threats, whether in person or online, will face the full extent of Arkansas law.

These threats are not a joke. They cause panic, disrupt our communities, and endanger the lives of students and staff. We are committed to ensuring the safety and security of our schools, and we urge everyone to take this issue seriously. Parents, please talk with your children about this issue. Please, secure any and all weapons to keep the accessibility away from our children. 

If you see or hear something suspicious, please report it to the authorities immediately. Let’s work together to keep our schools safe.
