Mellon Families:

On March 23, 2015, a student reported to Mellon Middle School staff / administration that a note was found in the 3^rd floor girls’ bathroom that read, “There is a bomb here.”  The incident was immediately referred to the Mt. Lebanon Police Department.  After the initial investigation, the MLPD and school administration deemed the incident not to be a credible threat.

I informed school staff, asked them to be aware of the situation and to immediately report any information they may receive in regard to the incident.  Staff members have been asked to be extra visible and vigilant in the hallways.  We continue to investigate the incident in an effort to identify the responsible individual(s).  Should you hear any information that you feel may be relevant to our investigation, please contact me.

Sincerely,

Christopher Wolfson
