As the Plano community was celebrating a safe, family-friendly weekend with fireworks a community parade and cookouts with family and friends, the District 88 family was extremely saddened to hear about the Highland Park tragedy. Our hearts and thoughts are with everyone who was affected by yesterday’s shooting. As we process yet another senseless act of violence, it reminds us of words we share with our students…if something doesn’t look or feel right, tell someone. We pledge to work together and support each other for the safety of our students, staff and community.
