Although the bomb threat was not directed at DSB1 schools, we understand that this situation can bring up difficult feelings for students and families.
The following strategies can help students feel supported.
During challenging times, the reactions of adults will set the tone for children and youth. Our staff will ensure that learning environments are calm and provide space to validate students’ feelings as they return to school.
We encourage families to talk with students about returning to school and reassure them that there are caring adults in the school to support them.
