Holmes Junior High was also the site of a bomb threat in May 2022 that prompted officials to evacuate the school. In that incident, officials said a written threat was found on campus.
Later, in September 2022, Holmes Junior High as well as Davis Senior High School had to go on a delayed start due to bomb threats emailed to two teachers.
