Administrators suspended the Foothill Middle School student, alerted police who searched his home and put him on a mental health hold, and notified the families involved.
Nearly a month after police were first alerted to the student's concerning behavior, most students, teachers and families at the school still hadn't been notified of the potential threat.
The principal eventually acknowledged the incident in a May 28 schoolwide email, but it is unclear if or when the boy was allowed to return to class.
Diane Samuels expressed concerns about the lack of transparency in communication by stating, 'What they've done is they've protected one student at the peril of all the others and that's just not acceptable.'
