SCMS Students On a Kill List; Parent Upset

The Standard learned last week, students were in trouble for compiling a list of students with the header, Kill List. We spoke with one of the parents with a student on the list. Many people in Stewart Co. learned on social media. It even made the news in Nashville. The school system put out a Facebook post, which read in part, “We want to inform you that school administration at Stewart Co. Middle School recently discovered a document containing a hit list. Upon discovery, the matter was immediately reported to law enforcement for investigation and appropriate followup. Based on the information available at the time, there was no imminent danger to students or staff.” School Director Mike Craig went on to state on the Facebook post, the Standard was never contacted, “Our administration continues to work closely with local law enforcement and Homeland Security to support the ongoing investigation, assess any potential concerns, and ensure that appropriate safety measures remain in place. We are committed to maintaining a safe and secure learning environment for every student and staff member. We ask that our community remain calm, avoid spreading unverified information, and rely on official school communications for accurate updates.” This post did not sit well with many parents based on the comments. Many said they were not assured or contacted.
