Red Lake Schools

There seems to be some chatter on social media about a student bringing a gun to school. No one brought a gun to school. We were alerted to a student's behavior and investigated with the support of the RLPD. No weapon was found. We are proud of the students who saw something and said something so we could investigate to keep all our students safe.

Did you know the negative impact that tardys have on students? Make sure your students are able to stay through the entire school day whenever it is possible!

Red Lake Schools are operating normally today. The threat identified over the weekend was investigated and handled by the Red Lake Police Department. Our neighboring district is not closed today due to the threat that RLPD handled over the weekend.

Red Lake school district has been aware of an unsubstantiated threat made to the secondary complex this coming week. The school district has taken this threat very seriously as it takes all such threats. Red Lake police have investigated, and the threat has been taken care of and neutralized. In addition, to help everyone, feel safer, there will be additional police presence in the school tomorrow.

The American Indian Parent Advisory Committee is looking for a couple of candidates to serve as student representatives. We meet every second Tuesday of the month at 5:00pm in the Culture room.
