Richmond Community Schools will resume classes Friday after police investigated another threat.

RICHMOND, MI -- For the third time this month, the Richmond Police Department is investigating a threat made against the Richmond Community Schools, with the latest one causing classes to be cancelled Thursday. The first threat was received on Tuesday, Jan. 3 when staff returned to their classrooms following the Winter Break. An anti-Semitic threat was found that day, directed at the Dean of Middle School students and his family. The dean eventually decided to resign from his post following the threat, despite having just started working in the district in December. Anyone with information regarding the threats is asked to contact Officer Roberts at the Richmond Police Department at 586-727-4000.

According to a letter issued by Superintendent Brian Walmsley, the second threat was discovered Sunday night via an anonymous email to the staff member. In the case of the threat against the dean, the threat was discovered last week when teachers returned to school from Winter Break. Although the discovery of the first threat led the district to close for the remainder of last week, Walmsley said classes would continue as planned this week. Officers with the Richmond Police Department will be working at all district buildings during school hours this week, Walmsley said.

While Walmsley did not share specifics in his letter about the death threat, he did say the letter specifically mentioned a teacher’s spouse and their children and other personal information. That teacher has been notified and Richmond Police are investigating the threat. Anyone with information regarding the threat is asked to contact Officer Roberts at the Richmond Police Department at 586-727-4000.

Residents of a small community in Vermont were blindsided last month by news that one official in their water department quietly lowered fluoride levels nearly four years ago, giving rise to worries about their children’s dental health and transparent government — and highlighting the enduring misinformation around water fluoridation.

The addition of fluoride to public drinking water systems has been routine in communities across the United States since the 1940s and 1950s but still doesn't sit well with some people, and many countries don't fluoridate water for various reasons, including feasibility.
