Out of an abundance of caution, Laredo ISD is suspending classes at both Cigarroa Middle and Cigarroa High Schools today.
The suspension is due to a threat which is currently under investigation by both the City of Laredo and LISD Police Departments.
While no students or staff are in an immediate threat of personal safety, LISD takes every threat and rumor seriously
LISD will pursue the full extent of prosecution to any person who poses a threat to our schools.
Meanwhile, additional security protocols will be followed in the surrounding schools and this includes Santo Nino, Kawas, Ligarde, Zachry, and Daiches Elementary Schools.
It's tomorrow! Es mañana! Get ready for LISD's Border Fiesta!
