Summary

Pennsbury High School initiated a secure hold on Monday morning after authorities received a threat. The school's administration promptly notified the police department about the situation.
A secure hold is enacted when a threat is detected from outside the school premises, distinguishing it from a lockdown which is reserved for internal threats.
In response to the secure hold, all school buses have been rerouted to the middle school campus and will remain there until further instructions are provided. Students walking to the high school or arriving by car have been directed into the building or sent home.
Consequently, elementary bus routes, including all IU buses and vans, are experiencing delays this morning. The school has stated that additional updates will be shared as the situation develops and more information becomes available.
