A note was sent home to parents on Friday concerning the threat.
Officers will be present at the school during the day.

REMC Reports Power Outage
A problem at a NIPSCO substation at approximately 8:15 a.m. today knocked Kosciusko REMC's Claypool meter point out of service. This has caused a power outage for approximately 1,250 KREMC members. Efforts are underway to switch these members to other power sources, and KREMC crews will continue these efforts until the NIPSCO outage can be restored.
