St. Louis Park High School canceled classes Friday after multiple fights broke out late in the school day Thursday.

“The high school will be closed to students, families and the public tomorrow. All on-site activities are also canceled, including the girls basketball game and high school athletic practices,” the school said in a statement on its website Thursday.

“School is canceled tomorrow to give staff the time needed to thoroughly investigate today’s safety incidents, collaborate with police, and prepare plans for a safe return to school next week. Police have already made arrests related to today’s incidents. All other schools in the district will hold school as usual,” the statement continued.

The district said two groups of students were involved in a “physical altercation” toward the end of the day Thursday. Teachers and staff immediately responded to the fight but it “escalated further” when adults who were not school employees later “became involved in another physical altercation with some of the students.” These adults were “aware of the earlier altercation,” the school said.
