St. Mary's School
SAFETY NOTICE
Dear Parents/Guardians,
On Friday we received a report that a person driving a vehicle on Myrtle Street appeared to be using a mobile phone to video record our paved recess area on Thursday afternoon. Though the encounter was brief and did not result in a solicitation or personal interaction, it nonetheless causes us to take pause and assess our own safety procedures.
In response to this incident, we have reported to and consulted with the Melrose Police Department, and we have requested increased surveillance of the area during the school day. Additionally, we will continue to review our safety protocols as a faculty and staff to ensure the safety of our students.
We would like to applaud the student who made this report. At school we will continue to educate our students regarding personal safety, including the practice of “see something, say something.” We encourage you to also take some time reviewing general safety procedures with your children, including safety when in public places.
Please know that the safety of all your children is always at the forefront of our minds, and we will continue to implement all the safety procedures that are already in place at St. Mary’s School. As always, I am available to speak with you should you have any questions or concerns.
Sincerely,
Christopher Beza
Principal
