Dear Roslyn Families,
In the wake of today’s deadly shooting at Robb Elementary School in Texas, we all share in the grief and horror of yet another tragic loss of life. I have no doubt that this violent act has given you pause to reflect on the safety of your own children.
I want to assure you that the District takes the security of our students, faculty, and staff very seriously. Daily measures are taken to ensure that our buildings are safe places. Any and all threats are investigated immediately and thoroughly by our threat assessment teams, based on the threat assessment model. We remain committed to doing everything we can to ensure no such tragedy befalls our community.
We are very grateful to have a close partnership with the Nassau County Police Department. While there is no known threat or connection to our region, you can expect to see an enhanced presence at schools across the county tomorrow.
For those students who are having significant reactions to this event, staff will be available throughout the district to help them process their feelings. Please listen to your children and encourage them to report any concerns to district staff.
Thank you for your support and trust in our district.
Sincerely,
Allison Brown
Superintendent of Schools
