Dear SAS Parents and Guardians,
We want to take a moment to extend our heartfelt gratitude to all of you who braved the cold today to support your children’s school during our Board meeting . There were many of you this evening, your presence and unwavering dedication mean so much—not only to us but to our entire team of educators and staff who work tirelessly to provide the best for our students.
Your willingness to stand by our school and advocate for the truth is genuinely invaluable. Your support reinforces the strong community we have built together—one centered on commitment, passion, and the shared goal of providing a high-quality education for all our children.
We know that some parents may still have concerns, and we want to assure you that we hear you and take your concerns very seriously. First and foremost, at no point was there any danger to our students or staff. After a thorough inspection of the facility, the City Fire Department determined that the issue stemmed from a standalone device emitting a fault signal. In the cafeteria and kitchen area, there are additional detection units, none of which detected any issues or triggered an alarm.
To prevent any recurrence, we are reinforcing our safety protocols with all of the third-party contractors to ensure strict adherence moving forward. Our top priority remains the safety and well-being of our students and staff, and we are committed to maintaining a secure environment for all stakeholders.
The safety and well-being of our students remain our highest priority, and we are committed to taking all necessary steps to ensure a secure and supportive learning environment.
On behalf of our Board of Trustees and our entire leadership team, we want to express our most profound appreciation. We remain steadfast in our mission to do everything in our power to ensure our students receive the best education in a safe, supportive, and positive learning environment.
Thank you for being such an integral part of our school community. Your support and involvement inspire us every day.
With gratitude,
SAS Administration
