LYNNFIELD β€” A written threat found in a restroom on Monday led to a police investigation and the closure of classes Tuesday for Our Lady of the Assumption School.

Lynnfield Police responded to the report at approximately 9 a.m., according to a press release from the department.

β€œThe responding Officers secured the school and began to investigate,” the statement said. β€œIn the course of the investigation, the Lynnfield Police brought Police dogs through the school, spoke to students and their parents, and assisted school administration.”

The school administration dismissed students and canceled classes for Tuesday as the investigation continues.

In a letter obtained by Boston 25 News, Principal Cynthia Donovan said: β€œThis morning, we discovered a written threat in one of our restrooms. We immediately contacted Lynnfield Police and implemented a lockdown which meant all students needed to stay in their classrooms while the matter was investigated by the police. Your children are safe and being well cared for by our teachers and staff… I know this is difficult to learn and that you naturally are concerned. But please know we are proceeding with the utmost concern for your child’s safety.”

Other details, such as what the threat said or who found it, have yet to be released to the public.
