'The threat is specific to tomorrow [Monday]. We have been working closely with the Nashua Police Department, which is still working at this time to determine the credibility of the threat,' Conrad said.
'The threat is specific and extends to several schools,' Conrad added,
'we will be cautious and close all of our public schools in Nashua tomorrow.'

NBC reports that Conrad predicted the schools would reopen on Tuesday.
New Hampshire Governor Maggie Hassan provided the following statement: 'Public safety is any government’s most important responsibility - especially at our schools - and we are closely monitoring the situation in Nashua.'
A 21-year-old college drop-out has been issued a subpoena over the hoax terrorist email threats sent to schools in Los Angeles, New York and Dallas less than a week before the terror threat in New Hampshire.
Vincent Canfield, 21, will appear before New York prosecutors in connection with the messages which sparked fear on the East Coast and shut down every school in LA last week.
The emails sent shock waves through the nation, threatening to wreak havoc and massacre hundreds using bombs and rifles.
More than 640,000 children were ordered to stay home on the West Coast at 7am on Tuesday amid fears of an attack on the nation's second largest school district.
FBI detectives and explosives experts descended on the 900 campuses in bullet-proof uniform after Los Angeles superintendent Ramon Cortines received an email describing plans to bomb at least three schools and attack students with assault rifles.
However, New Yorkers - who were already two hours into the school day - carried on as normal and Police Commissioner Bill Bratton held a press conference to describe the 'basic errors' that he believed showed the threat to be a hoax.
