Dear Families of New Town CT,

You are not alone in this grief. I am writing this letter to you so you know that I care too, and  I too suffered from the loss of the loved ones and lives lost. I know how it feels and I understand you. Here in Florida our school district has taken this devastating incident into perspective. We are trying our best to improve our schools’ safety to avoid any other tragic deaths like the one at Newtown, CT.

This has made me realize that by improving our schools’ safety we can make a change and perhaps parents could one day let their young ones go to school with no worries or at least have those worries reduced somewhat. Teachers could then go to work happily feeling and knowing they are safe and maybe they feel like at any given they do not have to place their lives on the line. Could you imagine how much better the teaching would be. This has all made me reflect upon how I  feel in regards to being safe in my school.

I have become aware of the circumstances, now we are willing to make a difference so that no other catastrophe like this could ever happen again.

Sincerely,

C. Graveran
