At approximately 9:50 a.m. this morning, a threat was found written on the girls restroom wall at Canton Middle School. It was investigated and found to not be credible. At no time was there an actual credible threat to the safety of the students at Canton Middle School. We take all threats to school safety seriously and are in the middle of an ongoing investigation to ensure that this issue is addressed.
