Bomb Threats

·        The person receiving the bomb threat call should engage the caller in a conversation to get as much information as possible:

·        Ask what time the bomb is set to go off.

·        Ask questions regarding the specific location, building, room, closet, locker, hallway, etc.

·        Ask about the appearance of the bomb package.

·        Listen for background noise, e.g., juke box, radio, other people, traffic sounds, etc.

·        Was the caller calm or hysterical?

·        Was the caller’s voice young or old?

·        Notify your Principal or the Superintendent .

·        The Superintendent will call the police and declare an emergency and initiate a Room Evacuation procedure of the appropriate buildings or full campus.

·        School personnel are to remain out of the threatened building.  The police will conduct the bomb search.
