Dear Parents and Guardians,

We were alerted today about an incident that occurred near our campus after school. I am sending
this letter home in an effort to have open communication with you and make sure you have accurate
information.

Today, campus administration was notified of a male approaching two female students walking on
Wenzel Road at approximately 3:45pm. The students stated that a middle-aged man called the
students over to his vehicle. When they ignored him, he got out of the vehicle and began approaching
the students. The students walked away to where their ride was located. The male then returned to
his vehicle and drove off.

The individual is described as a bald, black male in his mid-40s. He was driving a silver or gray car with
dark tint. A report was filed with North East police and they are investigating the situation.

I urge you to continue to discuss stranger danger with your children. I have included some safety tips
you may find helpful.

• Stay with a group when walking to and/or from home.

• Be cautious of adults asking for help.
• If approached by a person offering rides, walk away.
• Never get in a car with anyone unless your parent/guardian knows about it first.
• Make sure that parents are familiar with the route that students take home and have for
communication.
• Know where to go for help.
• Report any suspicious people or activities to a trusted adult and/or NEPD and SAPD.
• If your child has a cell phone, instruct them on whom to call for help.

Safety is our number one concern for students. Administrators, teachers and our NEPD officer will
continue to be visible and monitor students in the morning and afternoon.

If you have any questions or concerns, please contact the school at (210) 356-6200.

Sincerely,

Marcus Alvarez
