Merchantville School CSA addresses closing
January 10, 2013
Dear Merchantville Community,
As you are aware, Merchantville School was closed unexpectedly on Thursday, January 10. At the end of the school day on Wednesday, January 9th a threat, not directed at any person or group, was found to be written on the bathroom wall. The police were contacted immediately. The decision was made to launch an investigation and ensure that the building was completely safe before having students return. This was completed Thursday morning with the assistance of the police department. The building was deemed secure. However, the investigation is not complete. The Merchantville Police Department continues to take the threat seriously and perform a thorough investigation to properly assess the situation. As much as transparency is important, sharing more information than this could hinder the investigation.
