LUNENBURG, Va. — Lunenburg County Public Schools will reopen Tuesday on a regular schedule following a social media threat that prompted the district to close all schools Monday.
The Lunenburg County Sheriff's Office continues to investigate the social media threat, and an individual is currently in custody, according to a statement from Superintendent Dr. Sharon Stanislas.
As an added safety measure, law enforcement will be present at each school Tuesday.
Schools closed Monday after officials said a concerning social media post involved Central High School. The decision to close was made out of an abundance of caution and concern for the safety of students and staff.
Stanislas urged the community to rely only on official communications for accurate information.
"Please continue to rely on official communications for accurate information and avoid sharing unverified information or rumors," Stanislas said.
The superintendent thanked staff, parents, and families for their cooperation during the investigation.
"We sincerely thank our staff, parents, and families for your cooperation, patience, and understanding as we work together to keep our schools safe," Stanislas said.
