Medical emergency, September 27

Dear families,

There was a medical emergency involving a student today at our school. We are sharing this information as many students witnessed the situation.

Staff called 911 and first responders arrived at the school. The child is in the care of their family.

Your child may have witnessed this emergency. We want to make you aware of this incident in case your child mentions it to you, or if you wish to have a family conversation about it.

We want you to know that the health and safety of our students and staff are of the utmost importance at Janet Lee. We thank Hamilton Paramedic Services for their efforts. We also thank the staff for their leadership and students for their cooperation.

Please see the resource Tips for adults supporting children and youth after distressing events.

If you have any questions, please contact the school office.

Thank you,

John Gris
