Janesville, WI
Some Craig High School parents kept their kids home Monday after a threat of violence was discovered at the school Friday night.
The school was and continues to be safe, Superintendent Karen Schulte said.
The district reported that 8.7 percent of students were absent Monday, far higher than the normal 4 percent or 5 percent.
School officials searched all student purses and backpacks before they were allowed to enter school Monday.
"You always have to make that judgment call of whether or not you
think it's safe," Schulte said Monday. "The way I assess it is, if my
own kids were in this situation, am I confident they would be safe? And
if I believe that, then we continue on with the school day. If not, we
would not have had school at Craig High School today."
