Classes are cancelled have been cancelled at an Oshawa high school on Monday as police investigate an alleged bomb threat.
Officials at Eastdale CVI, located near Harmony Road and Adelaide Avenue, say they decided to close the school for the day to allow for an investigation after receiving a threat early in the morning.
“We are working collaboratively with Durham Regional Police Service in managing our response in the interest of student and staff safety,” reads a post on the school’s website.
“Please do not send your children to school. We will provide a further update once we have more information.”
Durham police say there is no credible evidence to suggest the bomb threat was legitimate and confirm they are working with the school.
Police say further information will be made available when investigators know more.
