School officials in Astoria are taking extra precautions after a handwritten bomb threat was found in the high school on Wednesday.
The threat was immediately reported to police who searched the school, but found nothing.
This morning, as students returned to class, the state bomb unit and Fulton County police swept the building and grounds with a specially trained dog. Staff and students were also searched as they entered the building.
The district says it will continue to take measures ensuring everyone's safety.
