The Nugget Newspaper - News and Opinion from Sisters, Oregon

Sisters Middle School and Sisters High School students returned to class on Friday, May 6, after an early release on Thursday due to an unspecified threat made to local schools from a phone number originating in Bend.

Sisters Elementary School students were out on a previously scheduled parent-teacher conference day.

DCSO Deputies planned to be a visible presence at the schools. Law enforcement has identified the caller, but were unable to locate him as of Thursday afternoon. Lt. Chad Davis told The Nugget that law enforcement did a sweep of schools on Thursday afternoon and again on Friday morning and found nothing amiss.
