MSD of Steuben County is on a two hour delay schedule today due to the fog. Stay safe, and we'll see you soon! #Apride
Earlier today, Angola High School was made aware of a possible threat made toward surrounding schools in the Steuben County area through social media. AHS School administration, the school resource officer, other Steuben County school administrators, along other local authorities immediately investigated the alleged threat. During the investigation school administration and law enforcement authorities learned that the alleged threat was not a viable threat and that the schools were safe and secure.
Further investigation later revealed that the threat did not originate from any students at Angola High School or MSD of Steuben County. AHS school administration has been notified that the origin of the threat has been located, and local law enforcement successfully addressed the situation.
Please know that all MSD of Steuben County Schools are safe, and we look forward to seeing everyone at school tomorrow morning.
This fog is not lifting! We will have an e-learning day today. This will be a traditional e-learning day, with assignments posted to Google Classroom. Teachers will be available for help and questions between 9:00 and 3:00.
We are on a two hour delay schedule today due to the dense fog in the area. Stay safe, and we'll see you soon! #Apride
