(12/6/18) - Message from the Superintendent

The following will be sent via automated telephone call to Eagle View Middle School parents/guardians.

Attention Eagle View Middle School parents/guardians:

(December 6, 2018) - Safety of our students and staff is of paramount priority. Unfortunately, administration became aware today that Eagle View Middle School’s principal received an email indicating a threat may occur at the school tomorrow, December 7, 2018. Within hours, the individual who was responsible for sending the email was identified and the threat was determined to not be credible.

We sincerely appreciate the efforts of our School Resource Officer and Silver Spring Township Police to assist District administration in bringing this case to a quick resolution. We are privileged to have Silver Spring Township Police, together with our other local law enforcement agencies, as members of the greater CV community.

As we have shared many times before, we all play a vital role in any school-wide safety effort; it is the duty and responsibility of students, staff, and families to report any potential threats to the proper individuals. While privacy laws prohibit us from discussing discipline of any specific individual, we can assure you that any student found responsible for making threats of violence will face consequences as allowable by both District policy and law.
 
Additionally, we again feel it is worth repeating that we strongly encourage parents and guardians to use this as another opportunity to remind students about the power of words and the consequences associated with making threats, even when those threats are meant as a joke and when the student has no intentions of, or capabilities to, follow through with those words.

Thank you for your continued trust, support, and partnership.

Frederick S. Withum III, Ed.D.
Superintendent
