STAFF REPORT :::
An Orrs Elementary School student on Friday, Sept. 29, was allegedly in possession of a knife on the school bus.
According to a letter to parents issued by Griffin-Spalding County School System Communications and Partnerships Executive Director Kimberly Willis Green, another student brought the alleged incident to administrators’ attention.
“A student aboard a school bus allegedly displayed a small pocket knife to another student,” Green wrote. “Upon arriving at school, the student reported the knife to his teacher, who later reported it to me. The student was called to the front office and administrators retrieved the knife from him.”
Green said the student’s parents were immediately notified.
