Dear Bateman Families,

 

The safety of our students is our top priority. We are writing to share information regarding an incident that took place near our school this morning.

 

It was brought to our attention that at approximately 9:45 a.m., there were reports of shots fired in the immediate vicinity of the school.  There were some students outside at the time for recess and all were immediately brought inside.  All students are safe and will remain inside the building out of an abundance of caution for the duration of the day, including lunch and recess. We followed CPS protocol and alerted the Chicago Police Department and CPS’ Office of Safety and Security. 
 

The majority of our students are most likely unaware that the incident took place during their instructional day, however, our counselor and social worker have met with all classrooms that were outside and are available to fully support all students who have been impacted by this incident. Teachers have been notified to contact the administration team should any student show signs of distress to provide immediate support.

 

Extra security will be available this afternoon to ensure a smooth and safe dismissal for all students. Dismissal will proceed as normal. CPD will also provide additional presence for the remainder of the day.  

 

We are working closely with CPS, the Chicago Police Department and the Alderman on this matter. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact the school directly at 773-534-5055 or by email at bateman@cps.edu.

 

Sincerely,

 

 

Georgia Davos-Vetas

Principal, Bateman Elementary

Estimadas familias de Bateman,

 

La seguridad de nuestros estudiantes es nuestra principal prioridad. Le escribimos para compartir información sobre un incidente que tuvo lugar cerca de nuestra escuela esta mañana.

 

Se nos informó que aproximadamente a las 9:45 a.m., hubo informes de disparos en las inmediaciones de la escuela. Había algunos estudiantes afuera a la hora del recreo y todos fueron llevados adentro inmediatamente. Todos los estudiantes están a salvo y permanecerán dentro del edificio por precaución durante todo el día, incluido el almuerzo y el recreo. Seguimos el protocolo de CPS y alertamos al Departamento de Policía de Chicago y a la Oficina de Seguridad y Vigilancia de CPS.

 

Es muy probable que la mayoría de nuestros estudiantes no sepan que el incidente ocurrió durante su día de instrucción, sin embargo, nuestro consejero y trabajador social se han reunido con todas las clases que estaban afuera y están disponibles para apoyar completamente a todos los estudiantes que se han visto afectados por este incidente. Los maestros han sido notificados para que se comuniquen con el equipo de administración en caso de que algún estudiante muestre signos de angustia para brindar apoyo inmediato.

 

Esta tarde habrá seguridad adicional disponible para garantizar una salida sin problemas y segura para todos los estudiantes. El despido procederá con normalidad. CPD también proporcionará presencia adicional durante el resto del día.

 

Estamos trabajando en estrecha colaboración con CPS, el Departamento de Policía de Chicago y el Concejal en este asunto. Si tiene alguna pregunta o inquietud, comuníquese con la escuela directamente al 773-534-5055 o por correo electrónico a bateman@cps.edu.

 

Atentamente,

 

 

Georgia Davos-Vetas

Directora, Escuela Bateman
