ARCHBALD - Adding two part-time police officers in Valley View School District for the rest of this school year will cost $13,000, and the money will come from the district's general fund, Superintendent Donald Kanavy said Tuesday.
The Valley View School Board on Monday voted to hire the officers. An Archbald police officer will be assigned to Valley View Intermediate School while a Blakely police officer will patrol Valley View Elementary Center.
The extra security comes after two unfounded bomb threats in the high school, one March 4 and another Thursday, caused evacuations and searches.
