NOTICE

Today a note was found written on tissue paper in one of the bathrooms in the high school with the word “bomb” written on it. Wright County authorities were immediately notified and an investigation is underway. Wright County authorities believe this to be a very low level threat, however all threats are taken seriously and precautionary measures are being taken.

At the close of school today Delano Middle School, Delano High School and the Tiger Activity Center will be closed until 7:00 a.m. on Tuesday so that Wright County authorities can conduct a thorough search of both the Middle School and High School. This action does not include Delano Elementary or the Community Education Building.

Tomorrow (Tuesday, April 20) all students and staff at the Middle School and High School will go through a routine bag search with law enforcement and school officials stationed at each of the entrances beginning at 7:00 a.m.

Delano Middle School and High School students are receiving a letter at the end of the day today explaining where to enter the building on Tuesday.

As a reminder, Delano High School will be conducting a mock car crash at 9:00 a.m. on Tuesday on Tiger Drive. This event will include the presence of a number of emergency vehicles including a helicopter.

I thank everyone for their patience as we deal with the safety concerns on the campus.
