None of the shootings involved students, but they did prompt increased security on campus, according to the Seattle Police Department and previous statements from Principal Tarance Hart.
The school closed early Thursday, with police officers on campus and in the neighborhood “due to threats that appeared to be related to dismissal time and after school,” Hart wrote, without providing additional details about the threats.
“Please know that I take safety in our buildings very seriously,” Hart wrote. Classes will be online Friday, with a two-hour late start.
