Fort Lauderdale Fire Rescue said medics responded just after 9 a.m. to the school, located at 1800 SW Fifth Place.

BCPS said five students were transported to a nearby hospital out of an abundance of caution after appearing to have an adverse reaction to “gummies.”

The incident remains under investigation, and no additional details were immediately released.
