Today, around 2:30 p.m., Springfield Police responded to a disturbance near the 500 block of Douglas, an area frequented by some of our student walkers. As a precaution, we temporarily held students who typically walk in that direction during dismissal. Once we received the all-clear from Springfield Police, those students were released. The safety of our students is our highest priority and we value open communication with our families.
