As a precaution the school will start the day in a soft lock-down. During the night the hospital received a phone threat of violence. Law enforcement is investigating the situation and its credibility. There will be extra law enforcement presence around the school/hospital area as well.
Soft Lock-down means the exterior doors and interior doors will be locked throughout the day and outside activities limited. Thank you for your patience.
