Information regarding some changes you will experience when visiting one of our buildings. In light of the most recent school tragedy in Florida, we have decided that it is time to increase the security at each of our school buildings. I want to be very clear that we have not received any type of threat and that this change is only part of our normal security review that takes place after significant events like those that occurred last week in Florida In the near future you will find each buildings front entrance to be controlled by a buzzer system that will require an office attendant to electronically open the door for visitors to enter. In the meantime, we will be locking our front doors and requiring visitors to call the front office for admittance to the building during the school day. The front office telephone number will be posted on the door of the building. We are aware that this will cause some inconvenience but are committed to providing the safest possible environment in which our students can learn. Again, I want to emphasize that we have not received any threat to the safety of the students and are only implementing this change as part of our normal security review conducted after the recent school tragedy in Florida. As always, if you have any questions or concerns you are welcome to call me at (989) 429-0610.

With Gladwin Pride,

Rick Seebeck Superintendent
