Frisco police say they are investigating a threat circulating on social media made against several Frisco ISD campuses.

A police department statement says, "our department and School Resource Officers continue to work closely with Frisco ISD to ensure the safety of students and faculty."

Some Frisco parents report receiving communication from Frisco school superintendent Mike Waldrip that said, "after this past weekend's events at the Allen Outlet Mall, and an incident at Stonebriar Mall, we understand that safety concerns are high in our community, especially when it comes to our students. Student absences will be excused across the District. We are asking you to please speak with your students about how what they say, written or verbal, even as a joke, is taken seriously by Frisco ISD and the police department; students will be disciplined and charged by the law accordingly."
