Out of an abundance of caution, G O Bailey Elementary was placed on a soft lockdown this morning due to a potential situation in the neighborhood around the school. System security personnel worked with local law enforcement to determine that there was no threat to the safety and security of the students or staff. The school has resumed normal operations.
Don't forget that Friday, December 16th is an early release day. All schools will release 3 1/2 hours prior to normal dismissal time. #4theT
