The building was cleared by police Thursday afternoon
Washington Township High School was evacuated due to a reported bomb threat written on a bathroom wall Thursday afternoon.
The evacuation was precautionary. The county and local police responded to the scene to clear the building.
According to the school’s website, students and staff were safe and dismissed at the regular time. At the time, it was unlikely the building would be cleared by the end of the school day. The high school received an all clear from law enforcement officials around 3:20 p.m., allowing students and staff to return to the building.
Parents picking up students at dismissal were directed to the Community Activities Center on Hurffville-Cross Keys Road.
The Washington Township Police are requesting any information regarding the threat. Contact Detective Fred Volpe directly at (856) 589–0330, ext.110.
