“Students and staff are not in any danger. It was a false alarm. District Administrators and Framingham Police Department are on-site to determine the reason for the alarm. Please do not approach or contact the school. More information will be shared shortly,” said a message that went out to families just before 11 a.m.
Supt. Tremblay told SOURCE the high school’s active shooter alert system was triggered when someone changed the battery.
When it was triggered, students and staff heard an announcement there was an ‘active shooter in J Hall.”
Teachers told students not in that wing of the high school to “run”and leave the school.
Police were in J Hall within minutes. And additional police cruisers arrived shortly afterwards.
