Schools in several Northwestern Ontario communities are closed today after an email threat was received.
The Keewatin-Patricia District School Board says all schools in Sioux Lookout, Red Lake and Dryden are closed today, along with the board office in Dryden.
The board says the closures were made out of an abundance of caution while the threat is being addressed.
All other schools within the district remain open today. That includes schools in Kenora, Vermilion Bay, Ear Falls, Pickle Lake, Ignace and Upsala.
The board has not released further details about the threat but says the closures will remain in place until the situation has been resolved.
