Rockdale County law enforcement officers are investigating a threat against one of the county's high schools on Monday.

The high school is located on Granade Road in Conyers.

Officials say there is no evidence to validate the threat, but the district's safety division and law enforcement agencies are investigating. 

"RCPS takes all safety threats very seriously and will always take the necessary precautions to include investigating such threats," the district spokesperson said.

The school also sent a notice to the families of its students, saying the school was on a hard lockdown as a precaution.
