Just a day after a bomb threat led to the closure of City Hall, three schools in Springfield faced similar threats. The Springfield City School District announced on Friday that two schools were evacuated while another was closed due to threats specifically referencing those buildings. The authorities did not disclose the reasons behind these threats. Superintendent Robert Hill informed families that students from Perrin Woods and Snowhill Elementary were moved to a different location for parent pick-up after the Springfield Police Division received bomb threats related to those schools. Roosevelt Middle School was also closed before classes began due to the same concerns. Hill reassured that there are no further threats against any SCSD facilities and stated that the District Safety Team is collaborating with local, state, and federal agencies to investigate these incidents.<\/p>\n<p>On Thursday, Fulton Elementary had also been evacuated following a separate bomb threat, which resulted in City Hall being shut down as well.
