San Andreas, CA – There was a heavy law enforcement presence at Calaveras High School this morning after a report of possible threats made following a fight on the San Andreas campus yesterday.
This morning, around 8:30 a.m., deputies from the Calaveras County Sheriff’s Office raced to the campus in San Andreas and quickly secured it.
“At this time, investigators have found no credible or specific threat directed at the school or its students, and there is no indication of an active safety concern on campus,” stated sheriff’s officials.
Investigators relay that the incident stems from an unreported physical fight on Wednesday (04/29/2026). Students nearby reported hearing threatening comments. Sheriff’s officials relayed, “Further investigation revealed that the referenced comments by one of the students were not directed at any specific individual, group, or the school itself.” They added, “Additional interviews indicated that the information, as relayed to law enforcement, had been passed through multiple parties, resulting in a heightened perception of concern that was not supported by the totality of the facts.”
The student who reportedly made these threats has still not been identified. Investigators ultimately want to speak with the student to gather additional information and context. Investigators noted that if law enforcement personnel are present on campus over the next few school days, their focus will be on additional patrols to support a safe learning environment and maintain positive engagement with students and staff.
“We appreciate the cooperation of school staff during this investigation and thank parents and students for their patience as we worked to ensure all information was fully reviewed.”
