In our efforts to address the concerns of the past several days, we would like to invite parents to a community meeting this Wednesday, March 20th at 6 p.m., in the Kimball High School Gym. Please attend to discuss how we can work together as a community to help prevent these threats from happening again.

School will resume as usual tomorrow, March 19th. Students should attend school at the normal start time. The school is safe.

Please read below for an update to a previous message to Kimball High School families.

As you are aware, this afternoon, Monday, March 18th, there was a bomb threat to Kimball High, which we did not believe to be credible, treated seriously with rapid response. Students and staff were immediately evacuated to the stadium. Students and staff were safe at all times.

Tracy Police Department and a team of bomb-sniffing dogs have carefully inspected the campus. No explosive devices of any kind were found.

We want to remind our families that threats are not jokes. Threats are considered a felony, a crime punishable by imprisonment. In addition to criminal punishment, students who make false threats will be referred for expulsion from school. Also, school days lost due to closures from school threats may be required to be added to the end of the school year. For your information, the police have taken into custody two students who are believed to be responsible for last Wednesday’s threat at Tracy High School.

If you have any questions, please visit the district website at tracy.k12.ca.us.

Your comment will be posted after it is approved.
