    At this time, the investigation into the threat situation is ongoing in cooperation with the West Chicago Police Department. The monetary reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction of the party involved is still being offered.

We believe Community High School is a safe environment for students to learn and grow and we will continue to do all that we can to ensure the safety of our students and staff.
