This was all over KVOA this morning (but nothing yet in the Daily Star). This sounds like a copy-cat version from a few weeks ago when several major banks received envelopes mailed from Amarillo TX from disgruntled former homeowners after their homes were foreclosed. The envelopes contained a benign white substance.
Somehow, the conversation I had with Rob in the Stock Exchange Saloon about the Douglas school district came to mind. "It's a family community" he said. Perhaps it's a dysfunctional family community...

Douglas officials shut down high school, medical center emergency room
Oct 28, 2008 03:55 AM CDT
Officials in Douglas have shut down the emergency room, at Southeast Arizona Medical Center, and temporarily closed Douglas High School, based on two separate incidents, police have not connected.
Police say on Friday, a student brought a substance to Ray Borane Middle School. Contact with the substance sent the principal to the hospital. According to the school's web site, the substance is benign, and the school will remain open.
On Monday, police say an administrative assistant at Douglas High School opened a letter addressed to her. A white powdery substance was inside. That person went to the medical center, while the powder is being sent to a lab in Phoenix for testing.
Until test results are in, the entire emergency room has been shut down, and is not accepting any patients.
