Received in today's backpack mail....
Families,
I wanted to let you know that we received a report of an unauthorized individual on school property while some of our students were at recess today.
The individual briefly walked near the baseball field behind the school and then left. It did not appear that the person made any attempt to interact with students and multiple staff members were supervising our students at recess during this time. Staff did not see the individual in question but they were made aware of this incident when it was reported to them by several students.
We immediately reported this incident to the Fairfax County Police Department.
While we feel that our playground and recess areas are safe spaces for our students, we plan to modify some of our recess areas and increase supervision during recess times for the remainder of the week. The physical and emotional safety of our students is our top priority.
This is also an opportunity to talk with your child about safety awareness when walking to and from school.
Please feel free to contact me if you have any additional questions. Thank you for your support.
Sincerely,
Principal
