Message to Parents and Guardians from Superintendent Jordan March 2, 2018

​Dear Parents and Guardians:

Today’s media post that was forwarded to MPD by a parent this morning contained statements
about a sophomore possibly having a gun at an unnamed school. Chief Corpuz phoned me this
morning at 7:35 and let me know he had all available officers at both high schools and was in
the process of investigating it. We spoke again around 10:15am when he informed me that they
did not find a credible threat, but would continue investigating and maintaining a police
presence. I spoke with Chief Corpuz again at 12:05, and he let me know that the investigation
revealed several layers of “hearsay” and found no evidence to validate the social media post.
With all that we went through in November at MHS and what has happened in other schools
across the nation, and most recently in Florida, these rumors are disconcerting. We will always
take them as real threats until proven otherwise, and I am so glad we have the partnership with
Milpitas police that we do as they too make the safety of our students and staff their highest
priority.

Our school principal teams, counselors, teachers and staff care deeply about each of our
students and we all want a nurturing learning environment for them. To that end we
continually strive for ways that we can ensure we are in tune with each child’s social emotional
needs. It is essential that we keep lines of communication open so that we foster a school
community that will continue to speak up if there is something that does not seem right or
poses a threat to others. I thank the concerned parent who called MPD to let them know about
the suspicious post, and her child for showing it to her.
Together we provide our kids with a school community in which they can be themselves and
thrive.

​
Sincerely,

Cheryl Jordan
Superintendent
​Queridos padres de familia y/o tutores ,

La publicación de las redes sociales de hoy, un padre aviso esta mañana a la estación de policía de Milpitas (MPD) acerca de un estudiante de sophomore que posiblemente tenía una pistola en una escuela no identificada. El Jefe de policía, el señor Corpuz me llamó esta mañana a las 7:35 y me hizo saber que tenía a todos sus oficiales policiacos disponibles en las dos escuelas preparatorias y que estaba en el proceso de investigación. Hablamos nuevamente alrededor de las 10:15 am y me informó que no encontraron una amenaza creíble, pero continuaran con la investigación y presencia policial. Nuevamente hablé con el señor Corpuz a las 12:05, y me hizo saber que la investigación reveló varias capas de "rumores" y no encontró pruebas para validar la publicación en las redes sociales. Con todo lo que pasamos en noviembre en MHS y lo que ha estado pasando en otras escuelas en todo el país, y más recientemente en Florida, estos rumores son desconcertantes. Estos rumores siempre los tomaremos como amenazas reales hasta que se demuestre lo contrario, estoy muy contenta de que contamos con el apoyo de la policía de Milpitas, ya que para ellos la seguridad de nuestros estudiantes y personal son su máxima prioridad. Nuestro equipo de directores y subdirectores de las preparatorias, asesores académicos , maestros y personal escolar se preocupan profundamente por cada uno de nuestros estudiantes y todos queremos un entorno educativo enriquecedor para ellos. Con ese fin, nos esforzamos continuamente para que podamos asegurar que estamos en sintonía con las necesidades socioemocionales de cada niño. Es esencial que mantengamos abiertas las líneas de comunicación para que fomentemos una comunidad escolar que continúe comunicando si es que algo no parece ser correcto o que representa una amenaza para los demás. Le agradezco al padre preocupado que llamó a MPD para informarles sobre la publicación sospechosa, y a su hijo por habérselo enseñado. Juntos proporcionamos a nuestros hijos una comunidad escolar en la cual pueden ser ellos mismos y sobresalir.

Atentamente,

Cheryl Jordan
​Superintendent (Rectora General)
Kính gửi Cha mẹ và Người giám hộ,

Chúng tôi hiện đang làm việc với Sở Cảnh sát Milpitas khi họ điều tra bài đăng trên các mạng truyền thông xã hội liên quan đến trường trung học không tên. Chúng tôi không biết liệu nó có liên quan đến trường học của chúng tôi, nhưng chúng tôi muốn đề phòng mọi cách để giữ an toàn cho học sinh. Hiện nay, có sự hiện diện của cảnh sát tại các trường trung học với sự cảnh giác của nhân viên. Chúng tôi sẽ cập nhật quý sau cuộc điều tra của cảnh sát và khi chúng tôi tìm hiểu thêm. MPD đã không thông báo cho chúng tôi để có bất kỳ thay đổi cho ngày giảng dạy của chúng tôi. Vì lý do đó, hôm nay sẽ vẫn là một ngày học bình thường. Vui lòng liên hệ với MPD nếu quý vịcó thêm thông tin để cung cấp.

Trân trọng,

Cheryl Jordan
​Trưởng Khu Học Chánh
