WOODLAND – School officials say a Woodland High student was arrested on campus Thursday for allegedly being in possession of a firearm.

In a message sent by Woodland High Principal Gerald Salcido, the student's belongings were being searched for an unrelated incident when the firearm was found.

Salcido noted that there was no direct threat to any students and the weapon wasn't brandished.
