Following investigations by the Park City police and Summit County Sheriff's Department, the student in the photo was located and the weapon was confirmed to be an air soft gun, and not an actual firearm, according to the district.
A spokesperson told FOX 13 News that "district policies will be reviewed and appropriate action will be taken."
Officials applauded the students for following the "See something, Say something" campaign and reporting the photo.
Following theshootings in Uvalde, Texas that took the lives of 21 people, including 19 students, all Park City district schools will see additional security and police personnel for the remainder of the school year that ends Friday.
