For the second time in a week, Lafayette High School has been locked down for a bogus bomb threat. Officials say a written threat was found on a wall in an annex bathroom at about one p.m.  The principal of the school is getting serious about finding out who’s responsible

By 1:30 p.m. St Joseph police had searched the grounds  and found nothing unusual.  Lafayette was evacuated on Monday after a similar threat.

The principal Tyran Sume (“tie-RAN SOO me”) went on the intercom after the incident and announced a $200 reward for information on who made the threat.  Sume also says any future antics of this kind will result in the time being made up at the end of the day, or the beginning of the following day.

There is one week left in the school year and no time left to make it up on Saturday.

She says students remained in their classrom with minimal interruption during the search of the school.  Final reviews are in progress and some benchmark testing is going on, but she says for the most part the lockdown an annoyance.
