Two Sanford juveniles, ages 14 and 13 years, were charged on Sunday with burglary, grand theft and felony criminal mischief after breaking into the Millennium Middle School on Sunday night.
Sanford police say, 14-year-old Leroy Pendleton and 13-year-old Demond Turner set off the burglar alarm around 10:00 p.m. at the school, after breaking the glass.
A perimeter was set up around the school campus and police K-9 units and a helicopter responded to the scene.
One police officer saw the two juveniles inside the school building and another cop saw the pair begin to run away from the school toward Lakeview Drive.
Pendleton and Turner, who surrendered to the police without incident, were taken to the Seminole County Juvenile Assessment Center.
The juveniles have been charged with burglary, grand theft, felony criminal mischief, trespass on school ground and resisting arrest without violence.
Police said the damage to school property was estimated at $4,000 and another $500 for clean-up.
