Okaw Valley High School students learned recent threats that have caused lock downs at area schools were not acceptable in the Valley.

Principal Matt Shoaff opened the March 1 assembly by pointing out 12 schools in the area had been on lock down recently for threats made over social media.

“This is unacceptable and gives all of us a black eye,” Shoaff said. “We want to come to school to learn and have a good time.”
