(KNZA)--Despite a rumor to the contrary, the Hiawatha schools were never under a threat of danger this week.

That confirmation is made in a release from the schools of USD 415 Wednesday.

According to the release, both the district, and Hiawatha high School administration, “were made aware of a school safety concern” after it was “rumored that a student had made a threat of violence toward the school.”

The release explains that high school administration, through the help of law enforcement, “thoroughly investigated the matter and determined that no threat was made.”

The release closes by saying that administrators, as well as the school resource officer, “will continue to monitor the situation.”
