The Prosper Independent School District has informed families that two students are facing consequences for separate threatening posts made on social media. A letter sent to parents on Tuesday evening detailed the incidents, noting that one threat targeted Prosper High School while the other referenced the Town of Prosper and Frisco.
Regarding the threat directed at the high school, the district stated that a student made the post and has since been arrested. This individual now faces criminal charges in addition to school disciplinary actions. It is not yet clear if the student attends Prosper High School.
The second incident involved a student who made a post described by the district as seemingly threatening, which mentioned the Town of Prosper and Frisco. This student is currently facing consequences under the student code of conduct and may also face criminal charges.
Law enforcement agencies, including district police, officers from Frisco and the Town of Prosper, and the North Texas Fusion Center, collaborated to identify the individuals responsible for the posts. In its letter to families, the district noted that law enforcement does not believe there was an active plan behind either case, describing them as social media posts.
The district emphasized that those who create fear and uncertainty will be held accountable.
