According to a message from Lincoln County School District #2 (LCSD), the district is working with local law enforcement to determine the validity of a threat made toward Cokeville and Star Valley High Schools.

A message from the district was as follows:

Dear Parents and Guardians,

This morning, January 28, our Cokeville and Star Valley Schools are working through an automated phone call reporting a possible bomb threat. After working closely with law enforcement, the call appears to be part of a hoax that has recently affected schools in other states.

Out of an abundance of caution, community members may notice an increased law enforcement presence.

All Schools are operating as normal, and we are in an ongoing communication with law enforcement. There is no active threat at this time.

We appreciate your patience and support as we continue to prioritize the safety of our schools and communities.
