ABSS Families: We wanted to make you aware that we had an incident today at Eastern High School in which a student reported another student having a gun. The school was placed in a soft lockdown as a precaution while we worked with law enforcement to investigate the alleged weapon. NO weapon was found. There was additional law enforcement presence on our campus. School resumed within 30 minutes of the lockdown. We continue to encourage students, families, and staff to report any areas of concern to administration.
