There will be an increased police presence on all Fremont Union High School District campuses Wednesday as a precaution over a threat believed to be non-credible, according to the Sunnyvale Department of Public Safety. 

In a statement on social media, the DPS said district staff had received an anonymous email Monday that made threats against four of the district’s campuses: Fremont, Homestead, Lynbrook and Monta Vista high schools. Staff then contacted the police. 

The threat is not believed to be credible, DPS said, but “out of an abundance of caution we are going to have police presence at all five of our school campuses in the morning, starting before 8:30 a.m.”

School would otherwise be in session as usual. The agency said it would be investigating the situation and the sender of the email. 

DPS said it planned to share more information as it became available.
