Law Enforcement is still currently on the scene investigating the threat to the campus.
Just after 2 p.m. officials released an update regarding the threat that was made included threats of shooting and violence.
According to a tweet, Police have determined the school may safely reopen. Staff may return to campus now. Students may resume classes at 3 p.m.
