Dear MSAD #60 Families,
The tragic events of Friday, December 14, in Connecticut have surely left our students confused, frightened, and with many questions to which they will be seeking answers. We as adults likewise struggle to understand such horrific events and must now grapple with numerous questions of our own: how do we make sense of what has happened? what do we say to our children? how do we provide them with a sense of security? what can we do to inform ourselves as to how to help our children cope with such horrific acts? Just as we struggle with a broad range of emotions - anger, sadness, indignation, grief - we must help each other and our families find ways to cope with what has happened....
