The Bexar County Sheriff’s Office said the incident started outside the school on the morning of October 6 after a teen threatened another teen with an airsoft-gun.
It’s unclear if that teen will return to school. We reached out to Comal ISD, who said they are not allowed to share information about individual students due to federal privacy law.
COMAL ISD FULL STATEMENT
The safety of our students and staff is our highest priority. Federal privacy law (FERPA) prevents the district from sharing information about individual students, and questions about the legal case should be directed to the appropriate law enforcement agency. As with any emergency, the district reviews its response with campus leadership and our law enforcement partners to identify ways to strengthen our procedures. We remain committed to keeping every campus safe.
