SEE Something, SAY Something
Several schools in Weston have been experiencing internet, email or text threats over the past week. In one of the instances at Falcon Cove Middle School, a 12 year-old girl has been arrested and charged with two felony counts. Threats are a CRIME and we all need to make children aware of the consequences of their actions and to Think Before You Post. Remember, if you SEE or HEAR something that's suspicious, be sure to SAY something.
