Dear Needham Public Schools Families:

Despite a wet and dreary weekend, I hope you and your family had a chance for some rest and rejuvenation.

I am scheduling a parent/caregiver virtual meeting on Wednesday evening, April 9th from 7:00 until about 7:45 p.m. to share information and updates about the recent arrests of two Needham Public Schools teachers. While I will not be getting into specifics as the police investigation is outside my purview and responsibility and in both cases is ongoing, I do want to offer an opportunity for NPS parents to hear directly from me about these two situations, including how we will continue to support our students. 

Given the nature of the topic I will not be recording this meeting.  I want participants to share or ask candid questions without worrying about comments being documented.

Here is the link to the virtual Parent/Caregiver meeting on Wednesday, April 9th at 7:00 p.m.

As always, please do not hesitate to reach out with questions or comments.

Respectfully,

Dan Gutekanst
Superintendent of Schools
Needham Public Schools
1330 Highland Avenue, Needham, MA 02492
He/His/Him
