Houghton Portage Township School notifies the community that there is no credible threat to the school. This morning district leadership and faculty were told of a rumor of a threat to schools in the area, including Houghton. An investigation conducted by the city of Houghton police department showed the rumor to only be a rumor, and there is no threat to the school or district. The district adds that the rumor may be a part of a social media hoax nationwide that has caused disruptions to schools. The district continues to enhance safety and security at facilities. All threats against the school district are taken seriously. Anyone with questions should contact the Houghton Portage Township School District for more information.
