I went to the Wicomico County Public School's Facebook page.
Wicomico County Public Schools

There's no way to block social media. Good ol' Facebook. Aka the horse's mouth. There are a lot of angry parents. It appears many of them weren't notified until it was over. Still no evidence or comments concerning an actual bomb though.
I wonder if something is going on in Wicomico County that might be stirring up some sort of anxiety? I wonder what would make someone want to threaten an entire school district?
The only thing I've found so far is that, as of last summer, they've tightened up their standards for student vaccinations. But who knows?

Here is an update. Apparently it was a pipe that burst. But the kids weren't there when this happened. So I don't know what Karen's sister in laws kid was talking about. There was no bombing, just a threat.

OCEAN CITY, Md. - Firefighters believe the source of smoke at Ocean City Elementary School is from the HVAC system.

According to the Ocean Pines Fire Department, crews responded to the school just before noon. According to Ocean City Communications Manager Jessica Waters, fire personnel are working to confirm the source, but believe it is confined to the HVAC system. Children and staff were not inside the building at the time the smoke was reported, Waters said.

Ocean City Elementary School was evacuated earlier this morning after a bomb threat was called into the school.

A spokesperson for Worcester County Public Schools says at this time, the students are being housed in the gymnasium and dismissal will go as originally scheduled. If a parent wishes to pick up their child early, they are permitted to do so.
