Parents Urged to Follow Official Sources
School safety reports can change quickly, particularly when information first circulates through social media or unofficial channels. A reported lockdown does not by itself establish that a shooting or other dangerous incident occurred.
Parents, students and staff seeking confirmation should rely on communications from Greenville County Schools, Mauldin High School and local law enforcement. The school lists 864-355-6500 as its main office number.
For now, the reason for the reported lockdown, whether a lockdown actually occurred, whether students were required to shelter in place or evacuate, and whether anyone was injured remain unconfirmed.
