The Lee County Sheriff’s Office held an active shooter training at Gateway Charter on Thursday.
The school dealt with a threat a year ago when a 14-year-old was arrested for making threats against the school.
Florida has dealt with its school shootings.
“We train for the worst-case scenario and we always pray for the best,” said Lee County Sheriff Carmine Marceno.
A worst-case scenario is like the one in Parkland in 2018 when a teen killed 17 others at Marjory Stoneman Douglas on Valentine’s Day.
