The lockdown at PHHS is not related to the nearby Morris County School of Technology lockdown, police said.

The PPHS lockdown was initiated in response to a "perceived student threat," the Board of Education said. They did not elaborate on what that threat was. The lockdown has since been lifted, and students are back on their regular class schedule, police said.
