Dear Parents,
I hope this message finds you well. I wanted to take a moment to address an important matter regarding the language used by students in class. Recently, there have been instances where students have used phrases such as "die" or "kill" in their conversations, which we want to address thoughtfully.
While we understand that these words may be used casually or without ill intent, we encourage students to be mindful of how their language can affect others. Words like "die" or "kill" can be alarming or upsetting to some peers and may be interpreted differently depending on individual experiences.
We kindly ask for your support in encouraging your child to use more positive and respectful language, especially in a school setting. We will also continue to remind students about the importance of kindness and the impact their words can have.
Thank you for your understanding and for partnering with us in fostering a positive and supportive environment for all students.
Warm regards,
Dr. Allen, Principal
