Fortunately no one was hurt following a bomb threat at a local school Thursday.
At around dismissal time Thursday, Whitecourt Central School received an anonymous threat that there was a bomb in the building. School officials say students were moved outside the school and dismissal proceeded from there.
School officials say all students and staff were accounted for and safe.
Further information is expected to be posted on the NGPS website and its other sites as it becomes available.
School officials thank the RCMP and local resources for their excellent response.
