Parents/Caregivers: Have you heard your child talk about the "Momo Challenge"? Media posts across the county are connecting the challenge with children exhibiting self-harm. The “player” (potentially your child) is alerted to messages requests self injurious behaviors to be captured and submitted.
We are gravely concerned by this and are seeking your help through awareness and support. Please closely monitor social media exposure especially to the Momo Challenge. Pay close attention to any warning signs of self-harm. In the event that you require any support from the school concerning this please notify the administration, school counselor and/or school psychologist at your school. #KidsAreOurCustomers
