In an email to parents and guardians obtained by 770 CHQR on Thursday, Bert Church High School principal Ryan Reed said the school executed the hold and secure immediately by moving students inside and locking all external doors.
“We are not aware of what the community event was but wanted to inform you of the hold and secure at the school this afternoon,” Reed said in the email.
