Concern on Social Media
English and Spanish: Waterloo Parents and Guardians, It is come to my attention that there is growing concern on social media this evening about the safety of the Waterloo School Building for Thursday, February 27, 2020. I can only speculate that the concern stems from an incident that occurred in the Middle School today regarding a verbal altercation between a small group of students. The Administration, alongside law enforcement, dealt with this situation per our policies and student handbooks and the incident has been resolved. At no time did either the Administration nor law enforcement feel there was any sort of credible threat towards the school or any students in the building. The School District takes all threats towards student safety seriously. The District is willing to investigate all potential safety concerns and we thank those of you that have brought items to our attention. Should any credible threat come to the our attention, please know that the District will communicate this with you through e-mail, phone, and official school social media. There is no reason for anyone to avoid school tomorrow, however the District supports you and your family to make the decision that is in the best interest of your child. Sincerely, Brian C. Henning District Administrator Waterloo School District
