Safety Letter to Parents
Dear EJE Family,
Along with the rest of the nation, we are deeply saddened with incidents happening across the country in schools due to gun violence. This highlights the critical importance of ensuring that our schools remain safe places for our students and staff.
Here at EJE we are proud of the work that we have done over the past several years in regards to school safety and security. From having School Safety Coordinators to implementing a school-wide safety plan. In addition, we have developed a partnership with El Cajon’s Sergeant for Special Operations Unit. We are working diligently to ensure that students and staff are trained in case of an emergency.
A critical component of our efforts at EJE has also focused on addressing the climate and culture in our schools. This involves addressing not only physical safety, but also the social and emotional safety of our students and staff.
We know that these types of incidents are not just a school issue, but a community issue and we have taken steps to ensure that we have community partnerships in place. We work hand-in-hand with law enforcement and community service agencies to provide our students and families access to different support services.
We thank you for your continued support to our commitment of providing our students and families with a safe and welcoming learning environment.
Sincerely,
Ariana Gonzalez Janet Vasquez
