Sharon District urged to improve lockdown communications after four schools lockdown
After threats led to a 11:20 a.m. lockdown of Sharon's four schools, police found no weapons or injuries and students exited on time. About 50 parents outside Case Avenue Elementary faced delays as the district notified the public only after two hours. Critics call for immediate alerts via phone, text, and email and a designated crisis-communications plan to prevent rumor-driven fear and misinformation.
