The Midland College Advanced Technology Center (3200 W. Cuthbert) will remain closed until further notice. Dr. Ryder Warren, Midland ISD Superintendent, has released the following statement:

"This morning, a Coleman High School student received a perceived threatening text message from an adult acquaintance. Because of the content of the message, we made the decision to place Coleman HS in lockdown. Also, this student attends classes in the afternoon at our Advanced Technology Center (ATC), so we worked with administrators at Midland College and also placed it in a lockdown situation."

"I want to hold up the efforts of our staff members at Coleman, as well as the staff at ATC for acting professionally today to make sure our kids remained safe. I also want to recognize the efforts of Midland ISD's PD, Midland PD, and Midland College PD - they all worked together today to support our campuses and our children."

"We are going to maintain security at both campuses throughout the day."
