I want to inform you of an incident that occurred this morning about 10 a.m. An older sibling of one of our students, became agitated and refused to follow the commands of school resource officers. The individual was taken into custody and removed from school grounds. A parent, who was also in the office, fainted, requiring the presence of paramedics and the fire authority. At no time was student safety compromised and the school day continued as normal.
The Orange County Sheriff's Department listed the incident only as an "information report" on its blotter.
