Staff and Families,
This morning at approximately 8:00am, law enforcement received a report of a threat of harm directed toward a student at Henkle Middle School. Out of an abundance of caution our school district quickly implemented our safety procedures and secured students and staff safely inside buildings while suspending access to facilities. This “soft lock-down” is in place at Columbia High School, Henkle Middle School and Wallace and Priscilla Stevenson Intermediate School.
Law enforcement arrived within minutes and are working with school administration to determine the credibility of the threat.
We will share more information with families and staff as it becomes available; not later than 9:30am.
Thank you for your understanding.
Rich Polkinghorn, Superintendent

The Columbia High School office will be open starting Monday, August 7, 2023. If you are planning to stop by you will need to use the C court parking lot (411 N.W. Simmons Road) and enter A court from the North entrance. I appreciate your patience with us as the A court parking lot is being renovated to help with traffic and the safety of our students. As always feel free to call before stopping by as summer office hours vary.
