Many parents are upset and feel they were left in the dark during school lockdowns in Cedar City this week.
"They could've reached out to the parents and let us know what happened, I know there are probably reasons why they didn't, but I know that I would've liked to know," Messerly said.
Parents say they were not notified of anything until a lockdown notification went out for Canyon View High School and Fiddler's Elementary School, they didn't find out details about Monday's incident until they saw the Cedar City Police Department's press release. In a statement from Iron County School District they said, "The altercations did not come to the school’s attention until the end of the school day on Monday when students reported them to the School Resource Officer. A police investigation began at that time. Through subsequent interviews, the timeline and report of a weapon came to light mid-day Tuesday. Under a precautionary measure, the school had an additional police presence on the campus on Tuesday.
