Classes Return to Normal at Pioneer Career & Technology Center
Pioneer Career & Technology Center Superintendent Gregory D. Nickoli released a statement in an e-mail. “Yesterday, several students reported that they received an anonymous "air drop" during lunch today that referenced a threat to the school shortly after our dismissal time. The threat did not mention Pioneer directly. After consulting with local law enforcement, our high school administration initiated several precautionary measures. Additionally, the Ontario Police Department and the Richland County Sheriff's Office dispatched additional officers to our location to ensure student and staff safety during the afternoon and during dismissal. Dismissal proceeded at the end of the day without incident. An investigation regarding the incident is ongoing.”
