The Anchorage School District said at least five schools have been broken into since the start of the school year, including one elementary school that has been hit three times.
ANCHORAGE, Alaska -
Williwaw Principal Likka McCauley said it’s hard to believe that thieves would strike her school more than once. The three thefts occurred over a six-week period this fall when someone broke into the school building and stole cash donated by the PTA that was kept in a locked drawer. “The kids had a real strong reaction, they were really upset that somebody came into their school community,” she said. “It felt like somebody was intruding into our space.”
