Wenatchee High School Parents

Yesterday, February 21^st, two messages were found on the boy’s bathroom walls at WHS stating, don’t come to school March 2^nd.  Administration did an investigation, watched video, followed all leads and at this time, have no suspects.

We are continuing our investigation in conjunction with the Wenatchee Police Department.  If we are able to identify the culprit, the full extent of the law and school discipline will be administered. 

It is important to understand that the Wenatchee Police Department does not believe this to be a credible threat.  It is also important to note that there is no specific threat mentioned.  The messages simply said, don’t come to school.  However, we are taking this seriously, have invested significant time and personnel to investigating this matter, and will continue to do so.  If you or your student have any information that may help us solve this case, please contact us with that information.

As we move forward, we will have an increased security presence next week and plan on school running as normal on March 2^nd.  We will keep you informed as more information becomes available and of course, we will continue to rely on the Wenatchee Police Department for guidance and next steps.

Sincerely,

Eric Anderson, Principal
