A Henderson high school will have an increased police presence Wednesday after someone made an unspecified threat last week at a nearby park.
In a letter to parents Tuesday, Foothill High School principal Lisa Burkhead did not provide any details of the threat, but she said she sent a message to parents March 12 to alert them that someone had written a threatening message on a park table.
School district police are working with local police departments in the matter, she wrote. No other information was available Tuesday night.
