Students at Taylor Co. High School were placed on lock-down earlier today (Thursday, March 1, 2018).
The following message was posted on Facebook by Taylor Co. School Superintendent Roger Cook:
"Everything is fine in all of our school buildings. Someone wrote on the bathroom wall that TC is next. I have locked down the students in class and we are doing a sweep of the building. There was not a bomb threat but we are checking the building as a precaution. We do not know what "TC is next" means, but we are doing a safety check anyway.
I have just made an announcement to all students from this point that any threat is made toward our schools that we would remove them from school for one calendar year. We will also charge them with terroristic threatening which is a felony.
Again all students are fine, this is a safety check of our school.
Also, any threat made from anyone student or adult outside the school will he met with felony charges. Even if the threat is not made while on school property."
