SPENCER, NY (CortacaToday) — Spencer Van-Etten High School will have an increased police presence today. 

District officials tell WHCU they received notice of a perceived unspecified threat, calling it ‘not credible,’ but want to be safe rather than sorry.

Multiple police agencies were also at the school Thursday as a precaution.

In a related story, an elementary student in Dryden was investigated by the district over a comment reportedly made about bringing a knife to school. Superintendent Josh Bacigalupi said there was no credible threat.
