Holy Trinity H.S. on alert after threat

Holy Trinity High School in Hicksville has stepped up its security measures after law enforcement officials notified the school of a potential threat.

Law enforcement officials informed the school of the threat discovered on My.Space.com. The threatened action, according to school officials, was to take place today.

According to a notice posted on the school's Web site, the school plans to limit its entrances to three areas, and students and parents were told that Nassau County police officers will be at each one.

Police declined to reveal details of the threat, saying that there is an ongoing investigation. They confirmed there would be a police presence at the high school.

Law enforcement officials contacted the school's principal yesterday morning to inform him of the threat they uncovered "through communications taking place on .MySpace.com," the school notice said.

Since then, administrators from the school and the Diocese of Rockville Centre have been working with investigators to catch the person or persons responsible for the threat, the notice said.

"We do not anticipate that there will be any disruption to the school day aside from some delay in entering the school building," the school memo stated, adding that the increased security was taken "strictly as a precaution."

If a parent decides to keep his child home, the absence will be excused, the school said.
