Dear Fillmore High School Families,

This morning, we received information about a rumor being circulated about a potential threat at our Fillmore High School rally this afternoon. We immediately contacted Ventura County Sherriff’s Department to investigate this potential threat. Following an investigation, the Sherriff’s Department determined that the threat is not credible and there is no danger to Fillmore High School students and staff. We have also been notified that there was an internet post regarding a similar threat at another high school in Ventura County. Unfortunately, this noncredible post has created fear within our school community. Again, the rumor of a threat at the FHS rally has been deemed noncredible. Out of an abundance of caution, we will have additional deputies in and around the FHS campus today and at the rally. Please know we take all information seriously and the safety of our students and staff is our priority. We would like to remind all of our school community, if you see something, say something. Let’s continue to work together to keep our schools and community safe.

Thank you,
Christine Schieferle, Superintendent
Fillmore Unified School District
