What is having this information going to do for you but scare you? Let the school and authorities do their jobs.

Because I was just about to leave my location to pick her up. Now I won't until she gives me the all clear.

And stop your bullshit. You'd want to know what was going on too, if it was your kid. BCC had two lockdowns for weapons last year.

I know. I’m at BCC too. But getting minute to minute updates from your kid on a cell phone they’re not supposed to be using during the school day doesn’t change the outcome of a crappy situation.

OP here. Just lay off, will ya: my kid was in PE, where the teacher cancelled the activities, gave them all free points and allowed cell phone use. I'm sure some DCUM readers are glad I made the thread.

Yeah phone were given back to the students as initially they called for a secure lockdown and we remained on it for about 15 minutes, before the AP corrected her initial call and clarified it wasn’t a lockdown but a secure.

+1. It wasn’t even a lockdown OP, it was a secure, so maybe we can get the moderator to lock or delete this thread.

Locks like despite whatever training MCPS claims they did with admin over the summer, that there's still not a good sense of when the schools are going into one status versus the other.

Well if you’re sure that spreading rumors to the Internet at large is a great thing, congratulations . I don’t see the purpose of this when MCPS shared a communication to all those in the BCC zone very quickly.

Kingsview Middle school went on Secure status around dismissal time on Tuesday. No specific reason given, just "possible threat" to the school.

Which middle school? My Westland 6th grader gets dropped off right outside BCC but we didn’t receive any communication from the middle school about bus delays.

Latest message (237): Secure status has been lifted at Bethesda-Chevy Chase High School. The police have finished their scan of the building, resulting in no bomb being found. The school was not in a Lockdown at any time during this incident. Dismissal will begin shortly.

Second-time BCC parent here, I have no complaints with the way this was handled. Quick communication, quick resolution.

Seems like it is related to the swatting incident at NWHS.

OP here. They're free to leave.

OP here.

My daughter said that initially, they were told it was a lockdown, and then they went to secure, and they are searching the school for a bomb, which will perhaps impact dismissal, because last time they did that, it took a while.

The message above was sent to BCC parents via Parent Square. Here's the full version (looks like the PP lost a few words)

"Bethesda-Chevy Chase High School is currently in a Secure status due to a report of a bomb threat made to the school. The call was made to county police, not the school. Police are on-site and supporting with a scan of the school. If this effort impacts the timing of dismissal, we will send a follow-up message."
