Police believe non-specific rumors of violence on Dec. 21 are not credible.
The Francis Howell School District on Wednesday sent out a safety alert to district patrons about rumors of potential violence in the district on Friday. While no specifics were given, the district is working closely with local police departments on the matter. Students will have a half day on Friday. It's the last day of finals for secondary students. This is the second local school district to have a reported threat on Friday.

Children's safety is No. 1, council members say; map of registered sexual offenders near the school may have swayed the vote.
The St. Charles City Council overrode a Landmarks Commission decision Tuesday and will allow the school district to replace doors and windows at Lincoln Elementary School. A map that shows registered sex offenders who live in the area may have swayed the vote. A list showing where registered sex offenders live in St. Charles County is available online. The Landmarks Board previously ruled that the St. Charles School District could not replace the doors and windows at the school at 625 South Sixth St. The board can approve or deny architectural changes or additions to existing buildings in the historic district.
