Bomb Threat Reported at Concord High School

CONCORD, NH - Concord High School parents received an email alert from school officials informing them about a bomb threat found at the school earlier today.

The email, which was sent out around 5:30 p.m. on Dec. 14, 2015, from Principal Gene Connolly, informed parents and school officials that an investigation into writing on a wall had taken place at the school today.

“The message is vague but includes wording that infers the possibility of a bomb threat, tomorrow, Tuesday, Dec. 15,” according to Connolly.

Connolly noted that the school system had a strong focus on the safety and was working with the administration, superintendent, and police, to investigate the issue. He added, “We do not believe the message to be credible.”

School is in session Tuesday and there will be police presence on the campus in order to make sure that students know that they are safe.

“Again, we want to reiterate that we do not consider this a credible threat,” the note stated.

Connolly thanked both the school district and the police department for the collaboration and thanked the greater Concord community for its support for the school.
