Another bomb threat; no evacuation?

The Meadville Tribune reported that there was a bomb threat at Cambridge Springs High School this morning. Some 12-year-old boy/doofus admitted to scrawling the threat on a restroom wall.

The building was searched and nothing was found. According to my daughter, they didn't even tell the kids what was going on (she didn't know about until I called her after school); they just announced that students would be staying in classrooms a little bit longer than usual and told teachers to check their email.

Something about this doesn't sound right--it was serious enough for the police to search for a bomb, but not serious enough to evacuate the kids from the school?

The District has no right to take that big of a chance!!!

I thought one of the local media outlets might make a bigger deal out of the fact that they didn't evacuate--the Erie Times-News mentioned it, but didn't seem to question school officials as to why that decision was made. I'm not sure if the Meadville Tribune covered it.
