Code Green for MPS

This is Stan Alleyne, Director of Communications for Minneapolis Public Schools.

I am calling to inform you that effective immediately, the Minneapolis Public School district has released the code yellow lockdown status at all school sites district-wide. Normal operations will resume.

The Minneapolis Police Department has made a determination that there is no threat to MPS.

I would like to thank you for your cooperation over the past two days. The efforts of students, families and staff members made it possible for us to carry out our code yellow in a calm and orderly manner. Classes continued in our buildings without distraction. We are grateful for our strong partnership with the Minneapolis Police Department, and we are pleased with the effective response of our school and district emergency team members.

Again, this is Stan Alleyne with Minneapolis Public Schools. Have a great day.
