Atlanta police and K-9 units swept the campus, and the school has since shifted to a softer lockdown, allowing students to move freely. </p><p>Parents are asked not to come to the school and not to call their student or the front office, “as phone lines and quiet inside classrooms must remain open for safety protocols,” Mitchell said. </p><p>All students, faculty, and staff are “secured inside classrooms and designated safe areas,” according to the letter. They said all exterior and interior doors are locked, and no one is allowed to enter or exit the building.</p><h2>Carver High School </h2><p>Carver High School, which is about 13 miles south of North Atlanta High School, was on lockdown “due to security concerns in the surrounding community,” Atlanta Public Schools said. </p><p>The district later confirmed Atlanta police were searching for a suspect, and the lockdown has been lifted. </p><h2>Midtown High School</h2><p>Midtown High School is on full lockdown due to a phoned-in threat, the district said. Nobody can get in or out, and students can’t move freely. </p><h2>Marist School</h2><p>Marist School, a Catholic private school for grades 7 through 12 near Brookhaven, said it’s on lockdown due to a threatening phone call. The campus is blocked off, and parents are asked not to come.</p><p>This is a developing story. Check back with Atlanta News First as we learn more. </p></div></body>
