Dear Parents,
I am writing to inform you of an incident that occurred in one of our schools. It came to our attention
that a student brought (a weapon) to school.
Because of privacy laws protecting students, I cannot go into more detail except to say that the
student who brought the (weapon) to school has been disciplined according to school policy.
The safety and welfare of all of our students is a top priority in our school district, and we take all
reports pertaining to school security very seriously. Upon learning about the (weapon) being brought
to school, we immediately took action to recover and contacted the (local law enforcement agency).
Thank you for your continued support of the students in (your school district).
Sincerely,
Name
Superintendent
School District
