Social media threat targets another NKY high school

EDGEWOOD, Ky. (WKRC) - Another Northern Kentucky school was the target of a social media threat.

Dixie Heights High School sent out a school-wide phone call just before 11 p.m. Thursday night informing students and their families of a threat made on Snapchat.

The school principal called Edgewood Police when he was alerted.

School officials decided not to cancel classes Friday but a heavy police presence is expected as officers continue to investigate, according to a school spokesperson.

Since this sort of thing has become so common that it barely makes the local news any more. The only reason I'm posting this is because this is the school that my grandson and granddaughter go to. Note that school officials didn't bother canceling class and, according to my granddaughter, the 'heavy police presence' turned out to be a doubling of the normal police presence at the school from one officer to two officers.

What kind of a nation have we become?
