Last evening and today, concerned students and parents were contacting USD 305, in regards to a social-media-spread “threat” regarding a Russian Terrorist Group threating local schools. This initial threat began in Maryland and Ohio, and has made its way to Texas. Today, Kansas.
Salina Police Department Staff and School Resource Officers have reviewed the on-line activity, and there no perception of a credible threat to Salina schools.

USD305 is sending a notice to the parents of district students about this issue.
