Superintendent Reaches Out to Parents After Marathon Bombing

A letter issued to Marlborough parents today offers resources to parents and reinforces the district's emphasis on safety.

The safety of students and staff will be paramount as school resumes next week, said Interim School Superintendent Steven Dlott in a letter on the district's website today.

"Many have been personally touched by this tragedy, and all of us are impacted by having such an unimaginable event hit so close to home," he said in the letter which appears in three languages on the district's website. "I cannot stress this enough: The safety of our students, faculty and staff is the No. 1 priority for Marlborough schools."

School administrators and members of the counseling team have been working together this week to make sure the resources and supports for students are in place on Monday, said Dlott in his letter. In addition, he said, the district will continue to review safety procedures to ensure the safety of students at the school.
