Evacuation (10/08)
Dear Columbus Campus Community,
The safety and well-being of our students is our highest priority. We are deeply committed to maintaining a secure learning environment and have implemented comprehensive safety protocols and security measures across our campus to ensure that every student feels protected and supported.
This morning, at approximately 8:40 a.m., school administration was alerted to an unverified threat posted on a social media platform. In line with our strict safety procedures, administrators immediately contacted the NYPD, activated our campus safety protocol, and placed the school on a hold. A precautionary evacuation was then conducted while the NYPD performed a thorough search of the building.
Following their investigation, the NYPD determined the building was safe and authorized re-entry. Officers remained on site to provide continued support and reassurance to our school community.
We will continue to work closely with the NYPD and other safety partners to monitor our campus and uphold the highest standards of security. Our team remains vigilant and proactive in ensuring a safe environment for all students, staff, and families.
If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact your school.
Sincerely,
Columbus Campus Principals
