Bomb hoax prompts closed campus for boys

In the wake of a bomb hoax discovered in a
restroom in a boy's locker room at Bonners Ferry
High School Thursday, school district
administrators will close the campus for all
male students beginning Monday.
This means that all male high school students
will not be able to leave campus from the start
of the school day until the final bell unless
formally signed out by a parent or guardian.
High school parents who signed up to receive
automated alerts by phone or email received the
notices shortly after 5 p.m. today.
The email notice read, "Good evening. In order
to ensure the quality of education and the
safety of our students, Bonners Ferry High
School will be a closed campus for all male
students. Students must either bring their own
lunch or purchase one from the school. Thank
you."
Superintendent Dick Conley notified school
district chair Melanie Staples of a proposal to
close the campus to male students and other
steps on Friday morning, and Staples forwarded
that proposal to the rest of the board for
comment, but no official board action was called
for. |
