Principal appreciates law enforcement response
I am writing to express my appreciation and gratitude to the Lowndes County Sheriff’s Department, especially New Hope School Resource Officer Master Sergeant David Criddle, for their concerted effort in maintaining stability and order in the wake of the recent social media threats aimed at the New Hope campus. They have demonstrated the highest degree of bravery in executing their duties, and the faculty, staff and student body are eternally grateful.
