ST. JOHNS COUNTY, Fla. — Students and parents should expect to see additional security on the campuses of Pedro Menendez High School and Nease High School Wednesday following a threat that circulated on social media.
The St. Johns County School District says it worked through the night with the St. Johns County Sheriff's Office to investigate a post containing a threat to a school that was circulating on Snapchat. The post has also been circulating in other districts and states as well, and does not mention a specific school, according to the school district.
"This is not a credible threat though in an abundance of caution we will have additional law enforcement on campus today," the school district said in a statement sent to First Coast News. "Please know that the safety of our staff and students is most important."
