This morning, out of an abundance of caution, emergency services were called to Brookwood School to investigate a strong odor reported in the building. Police and fire officials responded promptly, completed a full investigation, and confirmed there was no danger to students or staff.
We want to reassure you that everyone is safe, and the school day is proceeding on schedule. Out of caution, we take every report seriously and will always involve emergency personnel when needed to ensure the safety of our schools.
We are grateful to our local police and fire departments for their quick response and continued partnership. The safety and well-being of our students and staff remain our highest priority.
Thank you for your trust and support.
