(Please be aware that threatening comments made by children regardless of their age will not be dismissed. Children need to know the seriousness of such comments and that there are serious consequences. We strongly urge you to talk to your child(ren) about making comments such as, "I'm going to kill..." or "I'll get a gun..." to students or staff members. These types of comments are viewed by DoDEA and the Fort Knox Community Schools as threatening behaviors. Again, let we emphasize that due to the serious nature of these comments; we have no other option but to apply serious consequences that include suspension.)
