As an agency that serves children and families affected by this heartbreaking event, we extend our deepest sympathy and support to the students, families, educators, and staff during this difficult time.

We know that a school is more than just a building! It is a place of learning, connection, growth, and cherished memories. As the Milford community begins to navigate the days ahead, please know that you are not alone. We stand with you! 💛
