From Anita Tucker, principal, South Side High School –

In keeping with our efforts of communication and transparency, I want to make you aware of an incident that occurred on campus, Monday.

A gun was recovered from a student thanks in part to safety protocols that are in place here at South Side.

The diligence and awareness of our faculty kept our campus safe despite poor judgment by one of our students.

A full investigation is underway by local law enforcement. Please know we will continue to do everything within our power to continue a culture of safety and support here at South Side High School.
