As of 1:30 p.m. Wednesday, March 30, Wedgeworth Elementary has been deemed safe
for reentry by the Waxahachie Police Department and Waxahachie Fire department.
The building has been released back to the school district.
Wedgeworth students are now returning back to the school from Harvest Baptist
Church where they were being held until Waxahachie Independent School District
got the okay to return students back to campus.
At approximately 10:36 a.m., a bomb threat was made via a written note to
Wedgeworth Elementary.
All students were safely evacuated outside where they were accounted for and
closely supervised by Wedgeworth staff.
Due to the cold weather, the district evacuated the students  across the street
to Harvest Baptist Church.
School will be released at the regular dismissal time.
