UPDATED: All School Buildings on Lockout

August 14, 2023

UPDATE: 4:15 p.m.:

The Baldwinsville Central School District is continuing to work with the Baldwinsville Police Department and the Onondaga County Sheriff’s Department regarding the potential threat received this morning. This afternoon we were informed that Onondaga County 911 received a new potential threat regarding our district at around 3:30 p.m. Out of an abundance of caution, we will be keeping our school buildings on lockout this evening and canceling all evening activities that were scheduled inside our facilities and on our school grounds. We are working with law enforcement to determine our next steps, and we will continue to update the community as soon as information is available.
 

Dear Parents, Guardians and Staff, 

Out of an abundance of caution, all Baldwinsville Central School District buildings are currently under a lockout due to an anonymous voicemail about a potential threat. 

The voicemail was left on Friday night on a staff member’s phone and received this morning. The Baldwinsville Police Department is investigating the potential threat. 

We currently have students on our main campus for our Extended School Year Program. All students are safe and the lockout is for precautionary measures. 

Normal operation is occurring inside of each of our school buildings. 

We will update you as soon as the lockout is lifted.

Sincerely,

Dr. Joseph M. DeBarbieri
Superintendent of Schools
