Cody Middle School

Attention all 7th Grade Students, If you are interested in joining Student Council there will be an informational meeting in Ms. Hedges Pool's classroom on April 24th during Advisory.

Dear Cody Middle School Families, This morning Cody Middle School went into a brief lockout/secure perimeter in response to a situation that occurred at the high school. Cody Police Department determined that there was no credible threat to any students, and there was never an immediate threat to anyone at the middle school. Cody Middle School responds to such instances in a manner that best keeps students safe. We appreciate the hard work and vigilance of our police department, staff, and students. We appreciate your cooperation and support of Cody Middle School.

Park 6 Families, This morning at approximately 7:30 a.m. Cody High School administration received a message from the school resource officer indicating that there was a social media post circulating that could be directed at Cody High School, the author of the post mentioned CHS. This information prompted the district’s crisis management team to put Cody High School into a shelter-in-place and the district notified families of the situation. Cody PD responded to CHS and swept the building, following this sweep they verified there was no threat to students. Additional Park County law enforcement officers began investigating the origins of the social media post. They determined the post originated in Clovis, New Mexico several years ago. The post mentions a threat to CHS. A student from a neighboring school district saw this post and thought it was targeted at Cody High School and sent it to a CHS student who then reported it to law enforcement. At approximately 8:10 Cody PD informed the District’s crisis team that this was not a credible threat and that the normal operation of Cody High School could resume. We thank you for your patience, understanding, and support as the district and Cody PD worked together to resolve this situation. We are extremely proud of how our scholars responded to this situation.

Good Morning Park 6 Families, This morning a false report of a school shooting at Cody High School was called into the Park County Law Enforcement Center. Cody PD responded quickly and verified that there was no threat and that the students were safe. This unfortunate event seems part of a nationwide trend called "swatting". We are thankful for our local law enforcement acting quickly to verify the situation. Once again, no threat was found, and the students are safe.
