Bomb Threat Forces Atlantic High Evacuation

By Jason Schwartz

Students at Atlantic High School were forced out of their classes for about two hours after Delray Beach police received a bomb scare Monday morning.

It was not clear how the threat was received but Delray Beach Police sent out a tweet shortly before 9:30 a.m. asking all parents not to go to the school at 2455 West Atlantic Ave.

Police blocked off the entrance to the property and sent students to the stadium bleachers while they searched the school with Palm Beach County Sheriff`s Office dogs.

“The school is all clear!” tweeted Delray Beach police shortly after 11 a.m. “The students are going back inside. Thanks for your patience!”

No one was arrested.
