POLAND - Classes will resume at Poland Seminary High School on Wednesday, March 4, after a threat against the building was deemed not to be credible.

A notice on Poland Local Schools' website said that high school classes were canceled for Tuesday, March 3, due to a potential threat targeting the high school, which houses grades 7-12.

Poland Interim Superintendent Andrew Tommelleo tells 21 News he was notified by the high school's principal that a student had posted information on Snapchat about a threat against the high school they had heard.

Tommelleo said the Snapchat post mentioned a threat to a specific area of the high school at a specific time. Tommelleo added that the district only closed the high school because the threat was specific to that building.

"You can never act fast enough with social media, you can't get ahead of it, and so the key is to make sure the communication is very specific, as specific as it can be and that you get that information out to everyone," said Tommelleo.

An updated notice posted to the district's website states that an investigation by the district and local authorities revealed the threat not to be credible, and that school will be back in session on Wednesday.

The district said it prioritizes the safety of its students and takes threats like these seriously.

"Part of maintaining a safe environment to learn is ensuring students have an outlet to communicate when they sense trouble or do not feel safe. Students can rely on administrators, guidance counselors, school resource officers and their trusted adults when they feel unsafe in school," the district's notice reads.
