Dear CCHS Parents and Students,
We are all profoundly
saddened by the tragedy that took place yesterday in Connecticut. We want to
assure you that we will provide support to any students who are feeling
overwhelmed. This is a time when our strong community bonds are more important
than ever.
Please let your children know
that our counseling staff will be available on Monday (and beyond) to meet with
anyone in need of support. All students need to do is stop by the Guidance Department;
counselors will be there to assist them.
Take time to talk to your
children about how this incident is impacting you both. For those of you
looking for additional resources, the
link below may provide some helpful guidance to families:
Though it is not clear that
events like this are always preventable, I do want to assure you that the
safety and well-being of your children is our utmost concern. Though some of
our security measures are visible to the community, like the presence of our
school resource officer, others are not. It is also important to note that the
administration and staff have close relationships with police and community
leaders.
I know that I speak for the
entire school community when I say that our hearts go out to the families of
Newtown.
