Dear Parents/Guardians,

Our thoughts are with all those impacted by current global events. At all times it is important to emphasize the Richmond School District’s commitment to ensuring that all students, families, and staff feel welcomed, are treated respectfully, and have a sense of belonging.

We understand that children and youth will respond differently to stressors. If your child requires additional support, please do not hesitate to reach out to your child’s teacher(s), counsellor, or principal. Staff are here to assist you in determining the best way the school can provide support.

Please find attached a document with valuable strategies to support your child through stressful circumstances. We want you to know that we are here to support you and your child. Your child's well-being is of the utmost importance to us.

Sincerely,

Christopher Usih
Office of the Superintendent
