HOLLADAY, Utah — Officials with the Granite School District have confirmed that classes at
Olympus Junior High School started late Thursday morning following a bomb threat that officials did not believe was credible.
On its website, the Granite School District said, "We wanted to make you aware that Olympus Jr High was evacuated this morning after receiving a bomb threat."
Class starts were delayed until 10:30 a.m. so law enforcement could sweep the school and ensure that the campus was safe. Officials add they are taking steps to investigate the incident.
Students picked up by Granite Transportation were kept on the buses until they were allowed to go inside of the school for the late start.
