Grief in Our School Community
The following is a copy of an email sent to iLEAD Lancaster families on Friday, Sept. 22:
Hello iLEAD Lancaster,
It is with great regret that we inform you today was a very difficult and emotional day for our school community following the news of the death of a Middle School learner. We have taken the steps to ensure that our learners have someone to speak with. Today a grief team consisting of counselors and staff are in place to counsel and support our learners. They will continue to support learners and staff the following week and longer if needed. We are respecting the privacy of the family and will send out further information at a later date.
Your child may be coming home with questions and worries about this loss. Here are some resources that you may find helpful at this difficult time: Hello Grief; Good Therapy.
If you think your child needs additional counseling support, please, do not hesitate to contact us.
Warmest Regards,
Nykole Kent
School Director
iLEAD Lancaster
