Dear Stapleton community,
This morning we had a Shelter in Place happen at Stapleton, and a few other schools in the area. For those that haven’t heard and for an update to our community, there was a report of a man with a rifle near the McAuliffe Charter School this morning. Framingham Police have the gun and the suspect in custody. At no point were students in danger or was the suspect near Stapleton. We understand how alarming this news can be to read, but again, your children are safe.
A "shelter in place" is exactly that- students and staff remain in the classroom for a brief amount of time. Since emergency crews can only access the building from certain entry ways, we prevent students and staff from being in the hallways witnessing any emergency crew responses, to ensure privacy and keep everyone calm. During these procedures, students remain in their classrooms and staff continue teaching.
If you have any further questions, please don’t hesitate to contact administration.
