Hidden Oaks K-8 School in Palm Beach County, Florida, was placed on lockdown after a report of a student with a gun on campus, which turned out to be unfounded. The investigation revealed that the item in question was a "paper gun." Law enforcement conducted a thorough search and determined there was no risk to the campus. The school proceeded with a regularly scheduled day, but parents were given the option to pick up their children early. The principal reminded parents to check their child's backpack before leaving for school and emphasized that all students were safe throughout the incident.
