Wendy Chesney was in tears as emergency personnel waved her past “do not enter” signs as she drove to pick up her child at school Wednesday.
Chesney’s child was one of over 300 students at Rindge Memorial School who were evacuated from the school around lunchtime after a bomb threat written in crayon was found on a bathroom stall. Jaffrey-Rindge School District, along with police and fire personnel, enacted safety protocol and brought the students to the nearby Meeting House while a full-scale investigation was launched. It was very scary driving in, said Chesney. But as soon as I got past the barricades, everything looked very orderly. Nothing was frantic and all the kids were very calm.

Local schools are shifting to a full-time in-person schedule after Governor Chris Sununu ordered last week that all schools in the state must provide parents the option to be in school five days a week by April 19.
The Mascenic Regional School District and the Jaffrey-Rindge Cooperative School District both have grade levels still operating on a hybrid schedule with at least one remote learning day scheduled per week. Both will be eliminating their remote day on April 19, in compliance with Sununu’s order. Other area districts have already implemented a full-time in-person option, either in response to the governor’s order or as part of established reopening plans.
