KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The Hickman Mills School District will provide extra security at Ruskin High School Thursday after a social media threat.

District spokesperson Justin Robinson says a student posted the threat online Wednesday.

When the district learned of the threat, Kansas City, Missouri, police were contacted, and a note was sent to families explaining the reasoning for added security.

Robinson reports the student is not allowed in school Thursday, and class is scheduled to operate as normal.
