Dear Parents and Guardians,
Today, May 19, 2026, Corona Public Schools was placed in a Hold in Place status while local and state law enforcement responded to an issue in the surrounding area. At no time was there any immediate danger to our students, staff, or school campus.
As a precautionary measure, students were safely escorted into the building by staff members upon arrival, and all students, faculty, and staff remained secured inside while law enforcement worked to secure the area. Once officials confirmed that the situation had been resolved, the Hold in Place was lifted and normal school activities resumed.
The safety and well-being of our students and staff will always remain our highest priority. We appreciate your understanding, cooperation, and continued support as we work together to maintain a safe school environment.
