We’re digging deeper to learn what exactly makes a school threat credible and when school leaders should call parents and police.
Executive Director with the National Association of School Resource Officers Mo Canady said it can be really difficult to determine if a threat is credible, whether its from inside the school or outside. He said SROs get trained in behavior threat assessment that’s why all school threats should be taken to them.
Canady said each threat should be taken seriously, but not all threats will cause lock downs or school to cancel. He couldn’t share much on how exactly they make the determination, but he said email threats or called in threats can sometimes be the most difficult to determine whether they are serious or not. But, he said SRO’s can’t do much if they aren’t made aware of concerns.
