At 11:50 a.m. the school was notified by the Tyngsborough Police Department the source of the gunshots was determined to be hunters in a nearby conservation area, they are legally hunting.
We would like to thank the Tyngsborough Schools for their quick response and for following protocols established with the Police Department.
