The following message was sent to the school’s parents:
“Bnos Yisroel just had a school-side lockdown. This was based on our security officer hearing shots fired near school property. A full lockdown was established. Students and staff stayed locked down until the police cleared us to end the lockdown. There were indeed 9 shots fired within a few blocks of school. We thank our vigilant officers for their service and Hashem for keeping us safe.”
