Good afternoon,

A written threat was found in a boys bathroom today at approximately 1:00 PM. To ensure the safety of our students we moved into our Code Orange/Stay in Place. To follow up, we also contacted the White Plains Police Department who agreed that the school was secure, ending the Stay in Place at approximately 1:35 PM. Please commend the Highlands staff and students for their efforts to keep Highlands safe!
