Classes will be canceled Friday at Fuquay-Varina Middle School a day after a teacher and assistant principal disarmed a student who fired a gun inside a classroom.

In a message posted on the school’s website, it said that during Thursday morning arrival at 7:59 a.m., a student fired a weapon inside a classroom, damaging a window. The school immediately went into a Code Red lockdown.

The school district says Lynn Guilliams, a sixth-grade language arts teacher, heard the gunshot and immediately entered the classroom. Wake says Paige Elliott, an assistant principal, also entered the room.
