District officials have been informed that a female student was detained and processed in connection with threatening to bomb Del Rio High School. Since there are no holding facilities for females in Del Rio, Val Verde County Sheriff will be transporting the student to a facility outside of Val Verde County.


Statutory penalties for making terroristic threats depends on the level of the charge they are found guilty of committing. If the false report involves a public or private institution of higher education or involves a public primary or secondary school, a student could potentially receive:


  • a state jail felony, punishable by six months to two years in a state jail facility and up to a $10,000 fine.

  • If the alarm or false report involves any other location, the student could possibly be charged with a Class A Misdemeanor. A Class A Misdemeanor, is punishable by up to one year in jail and up to a $4,000 fine, or

  • Class B Misdemeanor, which is punishable with confinement in a jail and fines reaching up to $4,000.


District officials remind students and parents that threats and hoaxes are taken seriously for the safety of everyone. Students found to be responsible for terroristic threats will result in school disciplinary consequences and serious criminal charges.
