Harry E. James Elementary Update
The following message was shared with the Harry E. James community today:
Dear HEJ Families,
At about 12:10pm we were made aware of the sound of gunshots in an area near HEJ. The school immediately went into a shelter-in-place while the Hopewell Police Department (HPD) responded and investigated as did Prince George Police.
At approximately 12:40pm, the police reported that nothing was found and the shelter-in-place was lifted and the school resumed normal operations.
We wanted to ensure that students were kept safe even though it appears there was no threat. We want to choose to err on the side of safety and appreciate your understanding and support.
