First let me describe how my school is laid out. Leesville Road is one of those schools were the elementary, middle and high school are all connected. Now that you know this I can tell you what happened. Appartently a student at the middle school reportedly had a bomb in his locker, this was found out a little after 11 o'clock. Once the school administration was informed they evacuated the middle school. Around 11:30 they decided the highschool and elementary school would be evacuated as well. During the evacuation of the high school I was off-campus for lunch at Bojangles. My friend who was with me was texted by one of his friends that there was a bomb threat and this is how we found out. So we finished lunch and made our way back to the school only to find that the school was blocked off and all cars coming back from lunch were being stopped. So instead of waiting we took off for my friend's house. The whole time we were there I kept getting calls from other friends letting me know what was going on, things got serious for a little while when it was rumored that explosives had been found. After 45 minutes I got word the school was being reopened. Fortuantly, the threat was a hoax. This is the 2nd bomb threat we've had in 3 years. Most bomb threats are hoaxs and im glad this one was as well. It was pretty nice to have an 1:40 minutes for lunch though. You can read my local news station coverage of the story below.
