September 12, 2024 Dear La Joya ISD Parents and Guardians, In response to recent false threats made against our schools, thorough investigations have led to three arrests. These individuals are facing a variety of legal charges, including and up to a felony charge. We are sharing this information with you to let you know that we are taking each of these false threats seriously and want our parents and community to know that although none of these have resulted in any safety issues to our students, staff, or campuses, false threats will not be tolerated in our District. We also ask that you remind your children not to forward or spread any threatening messages. Instead, they should report such matters directly to a campus administrator or to our Anonymous Alerts reporting system. Individuals involved in creating or sharing threats will continue to face serious legal and administrative consequences. Again, we want all of our students and parents to understand that we seek to create a safe and secure learning environment for all of our students and staff which is why we cannot tolerate false threats of any kind in La Joya ISD.
