The threat at Sylvan Hills High School yesterday (Feb. 12) was isolated to that building. PCSSD and Sherwood PD will have added security on campus as a precaution. No threat was ever made against our school. This is just a safety measure. Your safety is our top concern!
PCSSD closed Sylvan Hills HS (main) today due to a viable threat that specifically identified staff at the school. The threat was isolated to a specific area which is why only the main campus was closed. We're working with local law enforcement, state police and FBI to resolve.
