Important Update: Social Media Threat

Earlier today, a social media threat mentioning BOCES was investigated by the Broome County Sheriff's Department. Due to the time, students enrolled in full-day programs had already arrived for the day. We canceled the morning CTE classes, which hadn’t arrived to campus, to lessen the traffic while we obtained more information. The threat was later deemed non-credible and originated from another BOCES. There is currently no threat to our campus. 

With this new information, we will resume our normal schedule for all programs, including afternoon CTE classes, and all other activities will continue as planned. Anyone who has further information or receives any information should notify the Broome County Sheriff’s Office directly.
