Today, high school students reported concerns to staff regarding a list of student names and possible threats to students on the list. Upon initial investigation by USD 289 staff, it was discovered that the list was created in October 2025 or earlier. As all of the actions by students in this matter took place outside of school and off school property, the matter was turned over to the Wellsville Police Department and Officer Pelts, SRO, for further investigation. While this took place off school property, it is possible students will hear about it at school, and we wanted to bring this to your attention and avoid rumors as much as possible. Student safety is our highest priority, and we will work with the Wellsville Police Department to support the investigation and keep students safe. If you have any questions regarding the investigation, please contact the Wellsville Police Department.

This morning, a vehicle accident occurred in part on school property at approximately 8 o'clock this morning. This was a one vehicle accident. Due to the presence of police and emergency response personnel in the area, we wanted to make you aware of this situation. Students and staff remain safe inside the building.
