Jasper-Troupsburg school issues statement in response to threat

Dear Parents and Community Members:

Please know that we were made aware of some concerning social media postings. Both the elementary and secondary buildings exercised precautionary measures during student arrivals Wednesday morning. We are working with the police. The State Troopers and Steuben County Sheriff's Department have located the individual or individuals responsible. As a result of this situation, you will see additional safety measures put into place for the next several days. A Sheriff Deputy will be at each building for much of today. We take the safety and well being of everyone here very seriously. If you have questions or concerns please, don’t hesitate to contact me.

Respectfully,

Michael A. Mead
Superintendent of Schools
