Important Update from the Minnesota Department of Public Safety
Nationwide TikTok trend regarding school violence on Dec. 17
This week, a TikTok trend emerged regarding alleged threats to schools, including threats of shootings and bombings, specifically to occur tomorrow, December 17, 2021.
The Department of Public Safety (DPS) has made local law enforcement agencies around the state aware of this national threat circulating on social media and we wanted to ensure school administrators are aware as well. Both law enforcement officials and school administrators may experience an increase in related reporting.
As of Thursday morning, at least three schools in Minnesota have located similar threat reporting. However, local and state law enforcement have not identified the threat as credible at this time.
At this time, DPS is reporting that the origins of this threat remain unknown and there is no evidence to suggest that any mass causality or severe violence incidents will occur on this date, within Minnesota or the U.S. more broadly.
Based on the content of this message and based on the fact that there are no known existing threats in the Crosby-Ironton School District, school will remain open at C-I on Friday, December 17th.

Superintendent
Due to the weather, C-I Schools will have an e-learning day, Thursday, December 16.
The Culinary Arts 1 class spent last week competing for "The Golden Spatula!" Kitchens teamed up to compete against each other for a gourmet grilled cheese cook-off challenge. The winners were Kitchen 3 with a sandwich titled "The Maple Miranda." It included sourdough bread, swiss cheese, bacon, and a homemade maple onion jam.
The judges were several staff members, included in this post are two of the judges!
Who will win The Golden Spatula for this week's challenge of a unique holiday treat? Stay tuned!
Reminder: It is an early dismissal today. The high school is out at 1:00 and CRES is out at 1:20.
