Ridgewood NJ, The Holmstead School, a non-profit middle school/high school/extended year school located on Hope Street, Ridgewood, was temporarily evacuated on Monday afternoon, 09/12, in response to an “unspecified threat” that was received by the school earlier in the day. A “bottom to top” search of the school building was conducted by several police officers from Ridgewood Police and the Bergen County Sheriff’s Office (BCSO). The human search party was assisted by two (2) BCSO K-9s.

An investigation into the threat’s origin will likely be conducted by Ridgewood Police.
