Schools across Lake County stepped up security this week after a threat made the rounds online. The Lake County Sheriff’s Office says it was investigated and determined not to be credible, but officers still showed up in force just to be safe. Campuses stayed open and officials say there were no problems, though some parents kept kids home anyway. District leaders say safety is always the top priority, and they won’t take chances. The investigation is still ongoing as deputies continue to look into where the threat came from.
