Camino parents, This morning, school staff was notified about a rumor of a social media threat spreading online. A few students saw the post and quickly reported it to parents who then notified staff. Staff quickly worked with the school resource officer on campus and LCPD to investigate the validity of the alleged threat. This was an isolated incident as law enforcement determined the threat to have no credibility. We want to reassure you that any threats made towards our students are taken very seriously. Thank you for your vigilance and continued partnership in keeping our schools safe. Camino Real Middle School Padres de Camino, Esta mañana, el personal de la escuela fue notificado sobre un rumor de una amenaza que se estaba difundiendo en los medios sociales. Algunos estudiantes vieron la publicación y rápidamente la reportaron a sus padres, quienes luego notificaron al personal. El personal trabajó deprisa con el agente de seguridad escolar y LCPD para investigar la validez de la supuesta amenaza. Este fue un incidente aislado, ya que las fuerzas policiales determinaron que la amenaza no tenía credibilidad. Queremos asegurarles que las amenazas dirigidas a nuestros estudiantes se toman muy en serio. Gracias por su vigilancia y por trabajar en permanente colaboración para mantener nuestras escuelas seguras. Camino Real Middle School

In the summer, the Las Cruces Public Schools Safe Routes to school program suffered a setback. On June 17, a storage area at Lynn middle school was broken into and nine bicycles were stolen. Working quickly with Las Cruces police, our safe routes coordinator, Ashleigh Curry, gathered her team and started searching through social media for any tips or leads on recovering the bikes. After recognizing one of the bikes for sale on Facebook, Ashleigh notified the police, and through a series of quick investigative work, a theft ring was discovered, an arrest was made, and five of the bicycles were recovered, along with two stolen vehicles that were part of a separate investigation. For their diligent work, Las Cruces Public Schools would like to thank Officer Austin Kane of LCPD and Lieutenant Joy Wiitala. The LCPD unit that investigated and recovered the bikes was the Community Street Crimes Unit, along with the following personnel: Sgt. Lazarin Sgt. Campa Officer Smith Officer Rodriguez Officer. Palos Officer Velasco Officer Kelley Officer Kane Officer Mora Officer Roybal Officer Berling
