Hello Petition Supporters,

Change.org provides a tool that allows petition starters and supporters to email decision makers directly from our platform. The message below is a response from the office of Superintendent Dr. Michelle Reid, sent in reply to one of these emails from the petition starter.

This is a great example of how public officials are often willing to engage with their community—bringing clarity around jurisdiction and helping connect people with the right representatives who can make change happen.

Here is the response:

Good morning,

Thank you for your email and I want to acknowledge that we have received it. Please know that the safety of our students and staff is of paramount importance to us. I am copying our Chief of Safety and Security for his awareness. We appreciate your email, and I can assure you the situation as it has been described will be investigated.

Most sincerely,

Special Programs Manager to Superintendent Dr. Michelle Reid
