Warsaw South Elementary School

The arrest has been completed and Sheriff office is just waiting on a tow truck. North School is back to normal operations.

All students and staff are safe at North School. Our North School went into a soft lockdown (no students or staff going outside) early this morning due to an arrest taking place near North School. There is no threat on campus.

A huge thank you to Sonic of Warsaw for donating multiplication cards for our 3rd grade students at North and South Elementary! We appreciate your continued support for our entire district! 💚✨ #WildcatTradition #Community ##OneTeamOneTown
