On the morning of Friday, September 25, a threatening message was found written on a bathroom mirror. The message read: “SHOOL BLOWIZ UP 9:30.” A smiley face was drawn after up, police said.
Due to concern over the alleged threat, students were evacuated from the high school and sat at the football stadium until five K-9 explosive detecting dogs were able to search the school. The dogs that responded were from Bristol Township, Lower Makefield and Middletown, police said.
The students were able to return to their classrooms after the search turned up no explosive devices.
