Safety is our #1 Priority

Our hearts are heavy today because of the tragedy in Connecticut. Our thoughts and prayers go out to the families that were affected by this tragedy.

Our district would like to provide you with a valuable resource for talking to your children about school safety and specifically this tragedy. One of the key messages for parents is to limit the amount of media coverage that our students see and hear about this tragedy.

Here is a resource about talking to your child about this tragedy: http://www.loveandlogic.com/pages/tragedy.html and http://www.loveandlogic.com/documents/help-kids-cope-with-tragedy.pdf.

In C-FB ISD, safety is a priority. We have extensive crisis plans that we drill frequently. For example, yesterday at Creekview high school, we partnered with the Carrollton Police and Fire Departments to practice our safety plan.

We will continue to be vigilant about safety.
