HAZARDOUS MATERIALS RESPONSE – EXETER HIGH SCHOOL
On August 27, 2026, at approximately 11:28 a.m., Exeter Police Department officers received a report of a possible elemental mercury spill inside a classroom at Exeter High School, 505 Rocky Hill Drive.

The affected classroom and adjoining classrooms were immediately evacuated, and students were moved to another area of the campus. Exeter Police and Fire personnel responded and requested a specialized Hazardous Materials (HazMat) response.

Out of an abundance of caution, and while the HazMat team responds to assess and address the incident, the campus was evacuated and students were sent home for the remainder of the day.

At this time, the evacuation is precautionary. Police and Fire personnel are continuing to work with the responding HazMat team to ensure the campus is safe.

Additional information will be provided as it becomes available.
