[quote=Anonymous]OP, no one can say for certain what the school will do, but I'd strongly presume that they will not automatically go to the police.

I posted earlier about my now 8th grader receiving an inappropriate text last year. It was a suicide threat from a friend and it included a photo of a knife. I didn't know what to do, but someone suggested calling the school and it was the right decision. I had literally never had any contact with the admins at my kid's big MCPS middle school, but the assistant principal got right on the phone and took charge. She didn't care that this happened outside of school (technically on the bus ride home.) She kept me in the loop throughout the next steps that she took to handle it. AFAIK she didn't involve police.

Fwiw my son understood why we had to involve others. I used the same argument that another PP suggested: this is way above my paygrade and someone's safety is at stake. Same holds for your daughter. There was some backlash socially at first but the kids are now friends and as far as I can tell this episode is firmly in the past. Hope that can be the case for your daughter and the boy who sent the text as well. Good luck![/quote]
