Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office Addresses Social Media Threats Against Willis ISD Schools

The Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office has confirmed that recent social media threats referencing Willis ISD schools are not credible. Investigators determined that the circulating threat originates from 2021 and has been reshared online. Authorities state there is no known danger to students, staff, or school facilities.

Law enforcement agencies, including patrol deputies, the Willis ISD School Resource Unit, the Homeland Security Division, and the Real-Time Crime Center, are actively monitoring the situation to ensure the safety of local schools.

Officials urge the community to report concerns directly to law enforcement rather than resharing unverified information online, which can create unnecessary fear and confusion. Anyone with concerns or information is encouraged to contact the Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office at 936-760-5800.
