ACHS BOMB THREAT: 275 had signed out, but some students already returning Safety issues being met, District says. Girl who wrote threatening note formally charged, no longer enrolled in AC School District. School, KSP, City Police, even bomb sniffing dog have been employed to assure student safety. Situation is in calmer stage now "Approximately 275 high school students have signed out of school today, but a few are returning to school after signing out." -Note from Assistant Superintendent. From Brenda Mann, Assistant Adair County School Superintendent Special ColumbiaMagazine.com bulletin A message scribbled on the girl's restroom wall was found the first of November stating that the Adair High School would blow up on December 10, 2007. School staff and the school resource officer have been investigating the writer of this message and as of late yesterday afternoon the withdrawn student was formally charged with terroristic threatening. The student charged was only enrolled at Adair County High from November 7-15, 2007. Although, the student is no longer in the Adair School District, she will still face terroristic threatening charges in juvenile court. There also have been some rumors of knives being found on school property. These rumors stem from Adair High Help Desk students finding what appears to be a utility work knife above ceiling tiles in a classroom where a multimedia projector was being installed on November 29. The knife found was dusty and appeared to have been there for a period of time.# It also is the same type utility knife that the installer of the heating/cooling units used when installing insulation around the high school units approximately two years ago. There have been no other knives or guns found during this time period, as have been Last night around 10:00pmCT, the Academic Team returned from an event and found a rock had been thrown through a front window of the Adair County High building. The night guard did a walk around of the building and did not find any other damage to the building at that time. The City Police came out and made a report. However, this morning two other windows in the front of the building, one in the gym and two in the agriculture complex had been broken by rocks. The City Police including our School Resource Officer, Jimmy Luttrell is investigating this vandalism and destruction to school property and has some leads# in the identification of the perpetrators. This incident possibly could be individuals trying to increase the intensity of rumors stemming from the incidents mentioned above. School staff is working with the City Police to investigate these incidents and are taking other precautions: The State Police brought in bomb sniffing dogs on Monday to do a lockdown and search of Adair High. These bomb sniffing dogs will be brought back to do a search of the building and trained officers will also be doing a complete sweep of the building prior to school opening on Monday, December 10< 2007. Another precautionary measure being taken is there will be more police and school security in place through the remainder of this week, weekend and next week. Safety measures are being taken and school is continuing on regular schedule. If you have information concerning vandalism or any other safety issue at the Adair County High School please call the City Police Department (270) 384-4119.
