Van Buren County Families -
Van Buren County Schools, the Sheriff's Department and Spencer City Police are aware that the TBI is currently investigating a series of hoax calls made to various county E-911 dispatch centers falsely reporting an “active shooter” in those respective schools. If Van Buren County dispatch receives one of these calls, as always, county emergency services and the school system will respond to the call appropriately and will be placed on lockdown until it is determined to be a false threat.
In any event, we will communicate with families as soon as information is available.

The registration deadline for VBCYA baseball ends tomorrow (Friday, April 28) night at midnight. After that there is a week for late registrations, but it is $10 more to register late. Get registered tonight! Register at this link:
