Sandy Hook Letter to Parents

The events at Sandy Hook Elementary on Friday have shocked and saddened all of us.  Such a tragedy makes us all reflect and search for answers.  The TDSB has responded with a letter to parents and some tips for parents to help support their children.  You will find these letters on the main page of the LKS website under the "TDSB and LKS Notices" section.   http://schoolweb.tdsb.on.ca/lambtonkingsway/Home.aspx

The TDSB and LKS take the safety of all children seriously.  We will continue to do everything in our power to create a safe environment.  The Director of the TDSB Dr. Chris Spence spoke candidly with the Toronto Star about the tragedy.  Here is part of his message to parents:

"To parents, I will say this — your children are safe. Doors are locked, cameras are on, and other security measures are in place. But most importantly, with close to 40,000 staff at the TDSB, you will always have tens of thousands of moms, dads, sisters and brothers looking out for them."
