Fenton High School was closed Friday in response to threats against the Bensenville school and a Fenton official.
Nobody was injured, Fenton High School District 100 said on its website and in messages to parents.
All extracurricular activities also were canceled.
Police, including a bomb squad, searched the building.
Fenton has been dealing with controversy over how officials handled allegations of sexual misconduct by a staff member. Large crowds protested this week during two school board meetings.
