On September 17, a school resource officer was notified that a student at Henry E. Lackey High School was potentially in possession of a weapon. The officer located the student and recovered a knife from his waistband. A preliminary investigation revealed that the handle of the knife was observed in the student’s waistband by several people. The student was charged on a juvenile offense report with possession of a deadly weapon on school grounds. He also faces disciplinary consequences from the Charles County Public Schools for violating the Student Code of Conduct. Parents are urged to talk with their children about bringing items to school that are prohibited.
