Students at Glacier Peak High School have limited bathroom access due to several bomb threats in the Snohomish School District this week.

KIRO 7 reports school officials found six bomb threats written on bathroom walls. That included threats at Glacier Peak and Snohomish High School.

Only some designated bathrooms can be used during passing time between classes now at Glacier. Glacier Peak was evacuated Tuesday and Wednesday.

“We have to wait in line for a really long time before class starts, in between passing periods to go, and then I’ll be marked tardy,” Erin Boyle, a junior at Glacier Peak High School, told KIRO 7.

Snohomish High had similar threats made on bathroom walls Wednesday and Thursday. Threats were also found on bathroom walls in Post Middle School in Arlington on Wednesday.

A female student admitted to four of the threats, according to Snohomish County Sheriff spokesperson Shari Iretonl. No arrests have been made. Any student caught making the threats faces emergency expulsion.
