Hello Yeguas! State and federal law enforcement agencies have made us aware of a statewide bomb threat hoax directed toward various school districts across Texas. Both state and federal law enforcement agencies do NOT believe this is a credible threat and may have originated in Russia. No threats have been made toward Somerville ISD, but we will let you know if there are any additional developments.
