This morning at Doniphan West Jr./Sr. High School, in coordination with the Doniphan County Sheriff’s Department, Highland Police Department, and the Kansas Highway Patrol K-9 Unit, a walkthrough of the building and parking lot was conducted. We followed our “Lock-In” procedures, with students remaining in their classrooms and continuing classwork as normal.
The walkthrough lasted approximately 30 minutes, after which the Lock-In was lifted. School safety continues to be our top priority.
