Oak Grove Parents and Community, I want to address misinformation that circulated on social media today regarding a possible missing child at Oak Grove School. Let me be very clear: At no time today was a student missing from Oak Grove School. All of our students were safe and accounted for, at all times. Unfortunately, information from a local dispatch call was picked up by a third-party app that uses artificial intelligence (AI) to interpret emergency communications. The information was misinterpreted, resulting in a false report of a missing child at our school. While technology can be a wonderful resource, this is an important reminder that just because something appears on an app or social media does not mean it is accurate. Sharing unverified information, even with the best intentions, can quickly create unnecessary fear, confusion, and panic. I completely understand that parents are concerned when they hear something involving the safety of our students. I would expect nothing less! We want you to know, if you ever have a question or concern about something happening at Oak Grove, PLEASE CALL US! We would much rather answer a hundred phone calls than have our families unnecessarily frightened by shared misinformation. The safety of our students will always be our top priority. Thank you for trusting us with your children and for helping us ensure that accurate information reaches our community. Jamie Cargill Superintendent Oak Grove Public School
