Shortly after school Nov. 4, a bomb threat was found in a classroom book, according to Interim Principal Scott Meyers.

The threat was brought immediately to Meyer’s attention, who then called a meeting of the administration and decided to contact the police.

A full police investigation was opened to look into whether the threat was credible.

Meyers said the investigation concluded around 8 p.m. Tuesday night after police and administration agreed no clear or present danger existed.

“When something like this happens, we contact the police immediately,” Meyers said. “They have a procedure for how to handle situations like these.”

The school sent a phone blast Nov. 4 around 8:30 p.m. to students, parents and faculty, providing information on the bomb threat.

Investigators concluded it was safe to come to school the following day.

Early Wednesday morning, all high school staff attended a meeting where the administration shared information regarding the threat.

Sara Thompson, Park’s director of communications, said although the threat is no longer deemed credible, the district is still investigating the incident.

“We continue to gather information about the disruption that this caused to the end of the school day yesterday and the start of the school day today,” Thompson said.

Additional police patrol cars were around the perimeter of the school in addition to an increased police presence inside the school on Wednesday.

Dozens of students decided to not come to school because of the threat. Senior Cora Iverson said she understands their concerns.

“If I would have heard about it earlier, I probably wouldn’t have come.”

According to Thompson, the investigations into the threat and the larger disturbance presented by the threat, are ongoing.
