Dear Parents/Guardians, We wanted to inform you that we received an email from ParentSquare last night regarding an 𝗶𝘀𝘀𝘂𝗲 𝗮𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗽𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀 𝘄𝗵𝗼 𝘂𝘀𝗲 𝗬𝗮𝗵𝗼𝗼, 𝗔𝗢𝗟, 𝗼𝗿 𝗩𝗲𝗿𝗶𝘇𝗼𝗻 𝗲𝗺𝗮𝗶𝗹 𝗮𝗰𝗰𝗼𝘂𝗻𝘁𝘀. Apparently, parents with those email accounts have not been receiving ParentSquare notifications via email this week. However, they are still receiving messages through the ParentSquare app (if they are using the app). The email below, from ParentSquare to WBSD7, indicates why the issue is happening and notes that they planned to defer pending emails, so that parents don’t receive old emails at random times. Apparently, that did not work! This morning, some parents reported receiving notifications from Wednesday (3/27), timestamped for this morning. We apologize for any inconvenience and confusion this may have caused. 𝗣𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗦𝗾𝘂𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝘀𝘂𝗴𝗴𝗲𝘀𝘁𝘀 𝗱𝗼𝘄𝗻𝗹𝗼𝗮𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗮𝗽𝗽 to avoid this email delivery issue until the matter is fully resolved. We are actively employing several communication strategies to ensure parents are informed about this information. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation. If you have questions, please email communications@willistonschools.org Best regards, WBSD7 Administration 🔶🔶🔶🔶🔶🔶🔶🔶🔶 This email message was sent to ParentSquare District Admin users at 6:20 PM on 3/28/24: We wanted to provide an update on the email delivery issues you may be experiencing with email accounts managed by Yahoo. What happened? Earlier this week, users with email accounts managed by Yahoo, including yahoo.com, aol.com, and verizon.com, began experiencing issues receiving emails sent from ParentSquare. Why did it happen? Yahoo began “deferring” emails sent from ParentSquare, meaning that Yahoo blocked those emails from being delivered. Other email providers, such as Google and Microsoft, have continued delivering ParentSquare emails normally. What are we doing to resolve the issue? We have been working with Yahoo and our email delivery providers to identify the root cause of the issue. Unfortunately, our providers have not been able to give us much information on the root cause or on how we can work around the issue. We are continuing to escalate the issue to try and get to a resolution as quickly as possible. We have also canceled all of those “deferred” emails that are pending for Yahoo. This means that they will not send unexpectedly at a later date when the issue is resolved. What can you do in the meantime? Please encourage your families and staff to install the ParentSquare app on their mobile devices. Users who enable notifications in the ParentSquare app will be able to receive the same messages that would otherwise be sent via email. We understand the importance of being able to reach all email users in your communities, and are committed to working through this issue to get to a resolution. We will provide an update when we know more about the root cause or how we can work around the issue. ParentSquare Team

Dear WBSD7 Community, We understand that recent security incidents at Williston Middle School Central Campus have raised concerns within our community, and we want to provide accurate information to address any misinformation that may be circulating. Here is a summary of the Four (4) Standard Response Protocol “Secure” (or higher) incidents that occurred at Williston Middle School Central Campus (WMSCC) during the entire 2023-2024 school year. Two of these incidents were not school-related threats, but potential threats identified in the community, near WMSCC. 𝐅𝐄𝐁𝐑𝐔𝐀𝐑𝐘 𝟏𝟓, 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟒 (𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐚 𝐬𝐜𝐡𝐨𝐨𝐥-𝐫𝐞𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭) 𝗦𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗮𝗿𝗱 𝗥𝗲𝘀𝗽𝗼𝗻𝘀𝗲 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝘁𝗼𝗰𝗼𝗹 𝗜𝗻𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗱: SECURE 𝗗𝘂𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: 25 minutes 𝗥𝗲𝗮𝘀𝗼𝗻: Precautionary measure requested by the Williston Police Department because the police were serving a warrant in the area of WMSCC and Rickard. 𝗠𝗔𝗥𝗖𝗛 𝟴, 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟰 𝗦𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗮𝗿𝗱 𝗥𝗲𝘀𝗽𝗼𝗻𝘀𝗲 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝘁𝗼𝗰𝗼𝗹 𝗜𝗻𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗱: EVACUATION of ASB to Bakken Ridge, then LOCKDOWN at Coyote Corner & Bakken Ridge 𝗗𝘂𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: 30 minutes 𝗥𝗲𝗮𝘀𝗼𝗻: A student reported to a teacher that he had a bomb in his backpack. Williston Police Department promptly investigated the matter, and no bomb or threat was found. The situation was thoroughly assessed and resolved without incident. 𝐌𝐀𝐑𝐂𝐇 𝟐𝟐, 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟒 (𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐚 𝐬𝐜𝐡𝐨𝐨𝐥-𝐫𝐞𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭) 𝗦𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗮𝗿𝗱 𝗥𝗲𝘀𝗽𝗼𝗻𝘀𝗲 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝘁𝗼𝗰𝗼𝗹 𝗜𝗻𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗱: LOCKDOWN initially, but within minutes updated to SECURE 𝗗𝘂𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: 17 minutes 𝗥𝗲𝗮𝘀𝗼𝗻: Williston Police Department requested that WMSCC, Rickard & later Wilkinson, which were in the area of Harmon Park, to be placed on SECURE due to gun shots fired in the community. 𝗠𝗔𝗥𝗖𝗛 𝟮𝟳, 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟰 𝗦𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗮𝗿𝗱 𝗥𝗲𝘀𝗽𝗼𝗻𝘀𝗲 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝘁𝗼𝗰𝗼𝗹 𝗜𝗻𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗱: SECURE 𝗗𝘂𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: 2 hours 𝗥𝗲𝗮𝘀𝗼𝗻: A SECURE was initiated at WMSCC as a result of reported information regarding student safety on campus. The information was later determined to be related to the “note” incident on March 26th. “Sweeping” of the schools was conducted by school resource officers and administration. Students remained in their classrooms (except to be escorted to the restroom), and student bags/backpacks were placed in the hallways with students not having access to their bags. Upon further investigation by WPD and school administration, no credible threat to the safety of our students and school staff was identified. The reported information was determined to be rumors that escalated through social media and text messages. 𝗠𝗮𝗿𝗰𝗵 𝟮𝟲𝘁𝗵 𝗶𝗻𝗰𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗻𝘁: A note was discovered in a boys' bathroom indicating “I want to blow up this school” “I’m going to bring a gun to school tmmr.” In response to this discovery, law enforcement officials and school administration immediately began investigating the situation. Based on the investigation, it was determined that school would be held on March 27th with enhanced security measures implemented. WMSCC administration continues to actively investigate this situation to determine the origin of the note. We want to reassure you that the safety and well-being of our students and staff are our top priorities. We have robust security measures in place and work closely with law enforcement to respond to any potential threats or concerns. 𝗣𝗔𝗥𝗘𝗡𝗧/𝗣𝗨𝗕𝗟𝗜𝗖 𝗠𝗘𝗘𝗧𝗜𝗡𝗚 To ensure that parents and community members have their questions and concerns fully addressed, we are hosting a parent/public meeting regarding recent potential threats and safety concerns at WMSCC: 𝗠𝗼𝗻𝗱𝗮𝘆, 𝗔𝗽𝗿𝗶𝗹 𝟭, 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟰 𝟱:𝟯𝟬 - 𝟲:𝟯𝟬 𝗣𝗠 𝗪𝗠𝗦𝗖𝗖 𝗕𝗮𝗸𝗸𝗲𝗻 𝗔𝘂𝗱𝗶𝘁𝗼𝗿𝗶𝘂𝗺 (𝗱𝗼𝗼𝗿 𝟭𝟱) Questions and comments will be digitally submitted with a link provided during the presentation.
