There are simply no words that can fully express how many of us feel following the tragic incident that took place in Buffalo, NY, on Saturday. As parents and caregivers, you are likely saddened, frustrated, and concerned about the safety of your children. We are living in a challenging time for which we do not have all the answers. I am encouraged, however, by the strength and resolve of this community—particularly our students, who are demonstrating that in the face of adversity, we can unite as one to find ways to prevent such hatred and violence from spreading.
Please understand the safety and wellbeing of all our students are a top priority. And we remain committed to working with you on our shared goal of providing students with the tools necessary to succeed in a safe, inclusive environment.
Thank you for your patience and understanding as we work to get through this difficult time together.
