CURRITUCK COUNTY, N.C. (WAVY) - Officials evacuated a Currituck school Wednesday due to a non-specific threat made toward faculty.

According to Sandy Kinzel, assistant superintendent with Currituck County Schools, Currituck County High School staff and students were evacuated for approximately 40 minutes Wednesday afternoon.
