Dear Hill Country College Prep High School Parents,
I want to take a moment to reach out to you this afternoon regarding today’s incident at Hill Country College Preparatory High School. At 8:34 a.m. law enforcement was called after a student shot a teacher. That teacher was taken to the hospital for medical care. The student died at the scene. This remains an active investigation.
Our hearts are with everyone impacted, especially our teacher, their family, and our school community. We know this has been a difficult day. I want to personally thank our local law enforcement officers, amazing staff, and district administrators for their swift response, professionalism and care of our students. We are deeply grateful to the staff at Bulverde Middle School for hosting our students and staff until they could be reconnected with their families.
To allow time for our families and staff to process and begin healing, we will not have school tomorrow, Tuesday, March 31. Counselors will be available to students and families from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Tuesday, March 31, at Mamman Family Public Library, 131 Bulverde Crossing, Bulverde.
If your child has a vehicle or any personal belongings on campus, they will remain secured until further notice. Additional guidance will be provided as to when you will be able to retrieve those items.
Please know we are here to support our students, staff and families during this time. Thank you for your continued support.
Julie Wiley
Principal, Hill Country College Preparatory High School
