Central High School Homecoming CANCELLED

This morning, a disturbing, anonymous social media post that included a threat toward Valley Stream Central

High School was brought to the attention of the District. Law enforcement was immediately notifed and an

investigation commenced. Any threat made to our District is taken seriously and is handled

with the utmost urgency.

The District is assisting in every way possible.

Out of an abundance of caution, the District decided to cancel today’s Homecoming activities at

Central High School. The District also arranged for an increased police presence at the school

campus throughout today as a precautionary measure. We will update the community as

more information becomes available to the District.

The safety of our students, staff and community is the Valley Stream Central High School District’s

foremost priority. I encourage any students or families who have questions about the District’s

comprehensive safety protocols and procedures to contact me or the building principal. 

Sincerely,

Dr. Wayne R. Loper
