Pembroke Academy was evacuated this morning after a reported bomb threat, according to students and parents in that community.

At a little before 10 a.m. this morning, the school sent out a phone message alert to parents stating that the school was being evacuated and students would be moved to the Three Rivers School.

Students, according to parents, were not told why they were being evacuated but reports of a bomb scare threat quickly circulated among students on Twitter. Students began writing notes stating “Save the Seniors” and joking about the threat using the hashtag #BombThreat2015 and cracking jokes about the evacuation.

At around 10:05 a.m., the New Hampshire State Police bomb squad arrived at the school, according to posts on Twitter.

Pembroke Police Chief Dwayne Gilman did not return an email request for more information.

Back on Jan. 8, the school was put into lockdown with fire and rescue teams and police called to the scene, causing a small panic at the school. It turned out that a juvenile female student was in need of medical treatment.
