Here is the letter that went home to parents:

Dear Parents,

Maintaining a safe and nurturing environment for students at League City Intermediate is our top priority, which is why I am writing you today. This morning a student reported to an adult that another student had brought a weapon to school. The student in question had not reported to any classes and was in the front office at the time of report.

The student was found in possession of an unloaded handgun and was immediately arrested by Galveston County Sheriff Liaison Officer stationed at the campus.

I realize this news is unsettling in light of recent events. School is continuing as scheduled today.

lease contact me if you have any questions.

Sincerely,

Kim Brouillard
