Area school and law enforcement officials are reacting to a number of threats that have taken place at schools in Dodge and Fond du Lac counties in recent days and weeks. Last Friday, school was cancelled in Beaver Dam following a threatening email. A couple weeks before that a 17 year old Fond du Lac High School student was charged with making terrorist threats after another student overheard him threatening to “shoot up” the school. This week a student wrote a threatening message at a Fond du Lac middle school. Dodge County Sheriff Dale Schmidt says these threats are disturbing and frightening. Schmidt says the community needs to be proactive in addressing these issues before they become threats or actual acts of violence. Fond du Lac School superintendent Dr. Jim Sebert says the Fond du Lac case shows that a student’s life can be changed forever with one mistake. The Fond du Lac student has been expelled and now faces a felony charge as he makes his way through the adult court system.
