Law enforcement will be present at each school, and we will have extra supervision to provide an added layer of security. School counselors and other community agencies will be available for students experiencing feelings of uncertainty. We are aware that many parents have been contemplating whether to send their students back to school under the circumstances. Please know that we respect your individual decisions as parents and guardians. If you have any concerns or questions about sending your child to school, we encourage you to reach out to your student’s school principal. We are here to support you and provide information to address any worries you may have. Our schools will operate on their normal hours, and we kindly remind all visitors to check in at the front office before entering the premises. This procedure helps us maintain a safe and controlled environment for everyone.

Regarding the social media threat, we want to emphasize the importance of discussing online safety with your students. While it is still unclear whether the threat originated within our community or elsewhere, we believe it is crucial to educate our students about the potential dangers of interacting with unknown individuals on social media platforms. Threats against schools and people are matters of serious concern, and we want to ensure that our students are well-informed and cautious online. Round Valley Unified School District takes threats of any nature seriously. We are committed to maintaining a safe environment for all students. Your cooperation and understanding help achieve this goal. Thank you for your continued trust and partnership as we navigate these challenging times together.
