Quinlan middle schooler disciplined after taking gun to school
QUINLAN, Texas - A student will be disciplined for bringing a gun to a Quinlan school.
The district says a student brought a pistol Monday morning to Thompson Middle School in Hunt County.
Someone reported the student brought the weapon on campus.
“As a report was being made alerting campus staff to the possibility of a weapon being brought on campus, administrators and QISD Police were immediately able to confiscate the weapon and bring the student into police custody,” school officials said in a letter to parents. “Having a weapon on campus is a direct violation of QISD policy and state law and disciplinary action will be taken against the student involved, including but not limited to, a charge for unlawfully carrying of a weapon in a prohibited place.”
No threats were made, but Quinlan ISD says the middle schooler will face disciplinary action and possibly be charged.
