Frisco ISD says investigators have determined a threat sent to several campuses Monday morning was "non-credible," and schools have been lifted from "secure status."
Monday morning, Frisco Police said several campuses received threatening emails. Frisco ISD said all schools went on "secure status." Students who were already in schools were kept there; kids who had not left home were told not to come to class.
Parents who wanted to pick their kids up were allowed to do so.
"FISD understands that today’s situation may be concerning for some families. While there is believed to be no known threat at this time, we respect that families may make decisions based on their comfort level," Frisco ISD posted on X.
Frisco Police say the district notified them immediately upon receiving the emails. Police say detectives and school administrators worked together on the investigation.
"At this time, the threats are believed to be non‑credible; however, out of an abundance of caution, Frisco ISD has placed all campuses on a Secure status. There is currently no known danger to the public," Frisco Police posted on X about 9:30 Monday morning.
Before 1:30 p.m., Frisco ISD said the investigation showed the threat was not credible and schools were lifted from secure status. The district said students who did not come to their campus Monday would receive an exempt absence.
