UPDATE: Police cleared the Pine Lake Middle School campus as safe around 4 p.m., having found no dangerous materials.

ORIGINAL STORY:

It looks like Pacific Cascade Middle School isn’t the only area campus dealing with anonymous written threats.

Pine Lake Middle School of Sammamish was evacuated Friday afternoon after a student discovered a note in the boys bathroom that referenced a bomb, according to an email sent by Principal Michelle Caponigro.

The discovery occurred near the end of the school day. Students were escorted to arriving buses and driven home as usual.

Staff and law enforcement were searching the building with bomb-sniffing dogs as of 2:32 p.m., when Caponigro sent the letter.

“We have reason to believe this is not (emphasis on not added by Caponigro) a credible threat,” she wrote.

Students not taking the bus were escorted to the nearby park-and-ride for pick-ups.

Staff will notify parents of any developments in the case and school is expected to resume normally on Monday, Caponigro said.

Due to its proximity to Pine Lake, administrators at Sunny Hills Elementary shared news of the evacuation with its parents.
