Officials Say No Active Threat at Evergreen High After Two Reports

One report proved to be a campus rumor, the other a student's trauma-related social media post.

Overview

  • The Jefferson County Sheriff's Office confirmed no threat after investigating two separate reports received Monday.
  • One report was quickly deemed not credible after investigators determined it originated as a rumor on campus with no actual threat.
  • The second involved social media comments by a student processing the Sept. 10 shooting, and after interviews and a digital review, investigators found no credible danger.
  • School leaders said the students connected to the reports were removed from campus pending completion of investigative and safety protocols.
  • Officials noted FBI involvement in the social‑media lead and pledged swift public notification if a credible threat emerges, as some families kept students home or left during the day.
