Dear Families,

On Wednesday, January 25, dozens of community members and several police officers met to discuss community safety in our area. Click on the photo from The Journal to read a great summary by Steve Zalusky @ Daily Herald.

One of the most important ways we, as a collective community, can increase our safety is to be connected to our neighbors. When we know each other's names and we know each other's kids and their names, we are better able to know and understand what and who is safe. Since the onset of our collective struggle through the pandemic, Euclid's motto has been #bettertogether. We are consistently reminded that the heaviness of tough times is lightened AND the wonderment of good times is multiplied when shared with others. True connectedness makes for a healthier, happier, and safer community.

Take care of yourself. Take care of each other. If you see something, please, say something.

Karen Daly, Principal
