Dr. Donna Hanlin, the superintendent of the Wicomico County Schools, issued a statement to calm rumors emerging out of an incident at James M. Bennet High School.
On Friday the facility was in lockdown for about two hours in the wake of a fight on campus.
WBOC reports that students told the television station that there were three fights.
Hanlin issued a statement that said the altercation took place between three students and was not schoolwide.
She said she incident was sparked by comments made on social media but did not provide any further explanation.
The television station reports this follows an incident on Wednesday in which 16 year-old Daquan Parks allegedly assaulted Vice Principal Lisa Forbush and Principal Rick Briggs in the office.
Parks has been charged with assault.
The station said it had received several calls from parents who were worried about the safety of their children at the school.
