Employee Reinstatement

Dear Kelvyn Park Parents and Families,

Our top priority is ensuring that we are continuing to support our families and ensure the safety of our school community, particularly during challenging times like now. However, we always want to keep you updated on important matters as soon as information becomes available, which is why we are writing to you today.

In December 2019, I informed the Kelvyn Park school community that CPS was investigating an allegation that one of our staff members engaged inappropriately with students. We take all allegations very seriously, and the district took the immediate step to remove the staff member and initiate an investigation. Based on the information learned during the Office of Inspector General’s investigation, a determination was made that it is appropriate for our staff member to return to Kelvyn Park when school returns to session.

Nothing is more important to us than the safety and well-being of your children. Investigations are necessary to ensure that your child’s safety is being appropriately safeguarded. I know this may have been a disruption to our school community, and I thank you for your commitment to the well-being of Kelvyn Park during this time.

I am confident that Kelvyn Park will continue to grow and be a strong school community where students’ best interests are the central focus each and every day.

If you have questions, please feel free to contact me at [email protected].

Sincerely,

Keith W. Adams, Ed.D., Interim Principal


Estimados padres y familias de la Escuela Kelvyn Park:

Nuestra máxima prioridad es seguir apoyando a nuestras familias y garantizando la seguridad de todos los miembros de nuestra comunidad escolar, particularmente durante este momento difícil. Sin embargo, siempre queremos mantenerlo al día sobre asuntos importantes a medida que esté disponible la información, por lo que le hemos mandado esta carta.

En diciembre 2019, le informé a la comunidad escolar de Kelvyn Park que CPS estaba investigando una acusación de conducta inapropiada por parte de un miembro del personal hacia unos estudiantes. Tomamos seriamente todas las acusaciones, y el distrito tomó la medida inmediata de expulsar al miembro del personal y de iniciar una investigación. De acuerdo con la información que se obtenga durante la investigación de la OIG, se tomará una decisión final acerca de si es apropiado que este individuo vuelva a la escuela Kelvyn Park. Le brindaremos información actualizada a la comunidad escolar si se le permitirá que esta persona vuelva.

Para nosotros, nada es más importante que la seguridad y el bienestar de sus hijos. Las investigaciones son necesarias para que garanticemos plenamente la seguridad de su hijo. Sabemos que este incidente ha causado molestias a nuestra comunidad escolar, y le agradezco por su compromiso con el bienestar de Kelvyn Park durante este momento.

Confío que Kelvyn Park seguirá creciendo y siendo una comunidad escolar sólida, donde los intereses superiores de los estudiantes son el enfoque central todos los días.

Si tiene alguna pregunta, no dude en comunicarse conmigo al [email protected].

Atentamente,

Keith W. Adams, Ed.D., Interim Principal
