Dear Parents:

This afternoon the Cedar City Police Department officers were in
pursuit of a suspect in our school neighborhood. In order to ensure the
safety of our students, the school was placed on lockdown per police
department instructions. The suspect was apprehended and the school
was released from lockdown.

We thank your for your patience in this matter, and apologize for any
inconvenience it may have caused. It is always our first priority to
ensure the safety of our students.

Sincerely,

Melissa J. Allen M.Ed.
East Elementary Reading Specialist
