Dear RM Community,

The purpose of this message is to make you aware that at approximately 12:50 p.m. we moved into a lockdown due to a report of a student seeing an individual brandish a gun on the exterior of the building. We immediately secured the building and contacted the Rockville City Police Department. In collaboration with the police department, at approximately 1:15 p.m. we moved to a shelter in place and students remained in their 5th period class out of an abundance of caution. Students will be dismissed from 5th period at the regularly scheduled time and there is additional police presence on site. After school activities are cancelled, however our home basketball games will be played as scheduled. Additional information will be provided.

Thank you,

This is pretty good, detailed info! Maybe MCPS is learning from its mistakes....

Great job leaving out what is publicly known. This was the second time these two men were at Richard Montgomery High School today. They arrived in a car and a truck and ran off into the woods. They weren't apprehended.

Thanks for clarifying. I was wondering about this.

Were the two men students from Gaithersburg HS? Or is that just a rumor?

-RM parent

group of students from Gaithersburg were at the school, possible MS13 affiliation with kids at RMHS. Gun was shown allegedly but not brandished.

Who's the target at RM and who is looking after them? If there were an SRO in the school, the SRO would know. And the police departments could offer protection.

Yep. This is why the SROs are essential. Thanks to our local politicians for fighting to remove SROs from MCPS schools.

SROs and now called CEOs and are back in the schools.

How many CEOs are there?

And why did they remove the SROs in the first place? What did that accomplish?

Elrich did it unilaterally in the name of police reform and Dre’s parents (Magruder) are suing him. Nowhere in the discussion was the fact Boack and brown kids get injured in fights at 10 times the rate they get disciplined.

I would guess they will get them but it will take a bit of time to track them down. My daughter said someone was pretty baadly beaten up in the first event so they will get charged with assault as well as having an unlicensed gun and having a gun on school property. Between the three violations, there will be charges.
I agree with PPs that they should bring back the SROs. There were drug dealing gang bangers in my middle America HS in the 80s but they usually waited until outside the HS to settle scores — it’ was not considered worth the extra hassle and risk of law enforcement involvement to settle scores at school.

If this is true, then doesn't that mean they know who the kids are and can hold them accountable?

Depends on their race. Most likely, MCPS will sweep this under the rug. Parents received the email posted, but there has been no other official communication regarding the issue or if the suspects with the gun were caught or not.

Honestly, I think parents have a right to know if the Gaithersburg students were caught and if there are MS13 members at the school.
