Chuck Puga, the school's principal, sent a letter home to parents saying the punishments came after the administrators "handling of an alleged incident off campus involving a student in possession of a gun."

No one was hurt, and there is now a law enforcement investigation.

The school named the administrators as:

  • Assistant Principal Noah Harris
  • Athletic Director John Thompson
  • Head wrestling coach Tommy Loyd
  • Assistant coach and Smoky Hill math teacher Jakob Fisher
