Banks County School System officials say they are aware of recent social media posts indicating some type of planned attack at Banks County High School and, while an investigation by school system and Banks County Sheriff’s Office personnel is underway, no credible threat has been determined at this time.

Still, system officials and law enforcement are taking the matter very seriously.

According to Banks County School System officials, they have increased the police presence in the school district, due to the recent tragedy in Florida, and to continue to provide added safety to the schools.

System officials also added that they will continue to be vigilant and take all threats seriously as they work with the proper authorities to ensure the safety of both their students and employees.
