The coordinated effort placed all students onto the school’s bleachers, providing a clear area for the evacuation while the threat was assessed. Police and 7Skyforce personnel oversaw the process, ensuring that the movement of students was orderly and that the school premises remained secured during the operation. The use of the bleachers as a holding area allowed staff to maintain visibility of the student body while awaiting further instructions.

The school and local law enforcement continued to monitor the situation throughout the day, and the campus remained closed to regular activities while the investigation proceeded.
