Wootton shelter in place - anyone know why?

Anonymous
Bomb threats at both. Einstein principal’s message said it wasn’t a “direct threat” to the school, low-level, abundance of caution, etc.

Let's guess, a delay in sending it. Has happened elsewhere before so just guessing.

Are you serious? Ugh


Text just came in from the school - bomb threat. How many schools are dealing with this today??

Einstein’s message said they expect to be back in school “momentarily.”

Thomas S. Wootton : Good Morning, Wootton!

Two reminders as we start this week;
* Exterior doors are locked at 7:45am. To enter the building after this time you MUST enter through the main entrance on Wootton Parkway.
AND
* Exterior doors should not be propped open for any reason!

Wootton removed shelter in place via text but student said they can’t leave 4th period until 11:30pm (normally 10:48pm)

Why SiP if a b threat? Don't you go outside? Or was it as those at Einstein heard, not a direct threat? ???

They weren’t doing this already? Seems a pretty basic safety measure, even without specific threats.

It says “reminder”. It’s already policy, but enforcement is sometimes lax.

So not related to this incident? Just wondering why it was posted here.
