From The Principal
Dear South County HS Parents,
Today, about 21 of our students walked out of our main entrance at 11:45am to bring awareness to sexual harassment policies and procedures. Students exited and reentered the building in an orderly fashion and were outside for about 20 minutes before returning to class. FCPS respects the rights of our students to engage in peaceful protest and express their opinions through speech and other ways as long as it is done respectfully, does not interfere with the rights of others, and does not disrupt learning in the school. South County HS is committed to providing an environment where everyone is treated with respect and encouraged to help others.
Following the walkout, I was able to meet with a few of the students involved in the walkout to schedule a time for us to discuss next steps and other ways we support the group.
Our teachers, administrators, and staff continue to reinforce a sense of positive school community, and we ask for your partnership in working with your child to discuss meaningful actions that they can take to engage in their community.
Sincerely,
Gary Morris
Principal
