As news of another heartbreaking act of violence on a school campus unfolds, I extend my sincerest sympathy to the community of Uvalde, Texas, dealing with this tragedy.
We want our schools to be the safest places our
students and staff can be. CFISD continually reviews emergency procedures and
protocols. We will remain on high alert with greater visibility of CFISD police
officers and administrators for the next two days. We encourage students to
report any suspicious behaviors to a staff member or to the CFISD Tipline.
Several of our schools have already distributed
resources to parents and guardians who are deciding how to share this news with
their children. Our guidance and counseling department has provided some
articles that should provide guidance:
NASP- Talking to Children About Violence
APA- How much news coverage is OK for children
NCTSN- Tips For Parents On Media Coverage
