Thank you, HISD staff, students, and parents, for a safe and efficient evacuation and dismissal today.
At this time (3:10 PM) all HHS students have been safely released to their parents or guardians or returned to their classrooms. All campuses will continue to operate on their regular schedule, with end-of-day dismissal at regular times. The shelter-in-place has been lifted at all campuses.
All Harmony ISD busses will run at regular times.
Law enforcement along with Bullock Investigations and canine units have searched HHS and found no credibility to the threat. Harmony ISD will continue to work with all authorities on investigating the origins of the reported threat.
We expect to resume normal operations tomorrow morning at the regular time. Students may pick up items left at the school tomorrow morning.
I will continue to update staff, students, and parents with more information as it becomes available.
The safety and security of our students and staff is of utmost importance in Harmony ISD. Thank you to our School Resource Officer, Mr. Lonnie Henry, Upshur County Sheriff's Office, and Bullock investigations for your coordinated efforts to keep staff and students safe. Thank you to our amazing community for your collaboration, flexibility, patience, and responsiveness today. We appreciate you all!
Mr. Michael Alphin
Superintendent

DISTRICT ANNOUNCEMENT! August 21, 2023.
Harmony High School received a bomb threat this afternoon.
All HHS students and staff are safe at HHS and have been evacuated from the High School building. The School Officer and additional law enforcement have been notified and are en route to begin clearing the building all afternoon. All other campuses are safe at this time.
Parents/Guardians wishing to pick up their high school students can check them out with an administrator at the Harmony High School gym. Students must be checked out by staff to parents before they are able to leave. For picking up students from other campuses, please check them out at their campus office.
Nobody will be able to re-enter the building until the all-clear is given by authorities. Any students not picked up will be supervised by district staff until school dismissal at the end of the day.
Please be patient with us as we work through a structured release for our students.
