When Alyssa got home from school today she said that she had a note in her backpack that the principal sent home, not long after that the automatic dialer from the school called with a message from the Superintendent.


Turns out that today at the Elementary campus there was a note found saying that a bomb was in the building. The school was evacuated and our local authorities, along with a nearby bomb squad was called to search the building. (We live in a town of about 2,000 people, but it is right outside of

OMG!!! I would have flipped! Why didn't you get a call earlier? Kids do know (can sense) what is going on and what if Alyssa was scared and just wanted to come home? You should have had the option! I am so sorry that you guys are having to go thru this. No parent should have to. No child should have to! Did they find out who wrote it? Sorry so many questions. I'm just glad that it was a hoax, and I hope they find the kid.

I wish they would have called earlier too! The message said they are still looking for the person that did it, but law enforcement plans on arresting/prosecuting whoever is responsible.


The note they sent home said for everyone to talk to their kids and explain this isn't funny and their will be consequences. I do not condone violence towards children, but someone needs to shake some sense into that kid before they grow up to be a menace to society.

One of the reasons that normally don't call earlier is that they have to secure the school and that often means securing the grounds.

The state of Michigan is looking into charging the parents of the kids the cost of the evacuation and investigation, etc.
