Dear SCSD Staff, Parents, Students and Families,
Our hearts, thoughts and prayers go out to the students, teachers, and families of Uvalde, Texas. These incidents remind us how important our efforts are to invest in forming trusting relationships with and among students in our schools.
The SCSD has important safety protocols in place. We have added secure vestibules at entries. We have increased the number of surveillance cameras at use in and around our buildings. We are grateful for our partnerships and ongoing communications with the Keokuk County Sheriff's Department, surround sheriff departments and other emergency management officials.
Finally, we all have a role in sustaining a safe learning environment. If you or your child see or hear something out of the ordinary or concerning, say something to someone involved. Report things to your teacher, principal, or local law enforcement officials. Of course, in an emergency, call 911.
With a heavy heart - Mr. Hatfield
