Breaking News– Tolles Career and Technical Center students were brought to the gymnasiums of Jonathan Alder High School earlier this morning due to a threat that was written on a wall found at Tolles.

This evacuation was a precaution taken to ensure the safety of the students and staff of Tolles.  Law enforcement is to stay at Jonathan Alder High School to ensure the safety of staff and students of both Jonathan Alder High School as well as Tolles Career and Technical Center.

Jonathan Alder students were to continue their days as normal. The athletic wings of the building, however, closed. Jonathan Alder students were not permitted to interact with the Tolles students while Tolles took refuge in Jonathan Alder High School.

Jonathan Alder Food Services fed Tolles staff and students lunch before they were to safely return to their building.

Any questions, concerns, or information about the situation should be directed to The Madison County Sheriff’s Office, Mr. Aurin, or Mr. Fenik.
