The Ministry of Education has reported another stabbing incident that happened today at Graydon Sealy Secondary School.
In a statement released minutes after 4 p.m. the ministry stated: “Today, we are saddened to learn of an incident which occurred after school at Graydon Sealy Secondary that resulted in a student sustaining an injury. While we have learned that the injury is not life-threatening, we are at pains to think of how a different outcome could have impacted family, friends, staff, and the student body.
“While the Ministry of Education in partnership with our schools is taking the necessary precautions as they relate to our children’s safety, we are especially appealing to parents to assist us by searching their children’s bags for weapons or contraband of any kind on a regular basis. We are kindly reminding all parents and guardians that they must be their children’s first checkpoint in making the school a safer space. We must work together to help our young citizens to make the correct decisions when faced with difficult circumstances.
“The Ministry of Education in partnership with schools continues to provide counselling services and guidance with effective conflict resolution, but we can yield far greater results with the continued support of parents and the wider community. The safety of our students is a collective responsibility, and we are appealing for a recommitment to the protection of our children.”
This after-school stabbing came three days after a similar occurrence on Monday at the Alexandra School.
