Swansea Principal Family Emergency: Please Read

Swansea guardians should have received the below letter from Mr. James Scott, an Executive Director at DPS, regarding Principal Diaz and a family emergency. A copy of this letter is below:

Dear Swansea families,

Your wonderful principal is dealing with a very difficult situation in her personal life that we wanted to make you aware of. Ms. Diaz’s youngest daughter, Megan, is a freshman at CU Boulder and hasn’t been in contact with her family or friends since Sunday night. 

Tonight, you may see a story on 9News about her missing daughter. The family is working with the CU Boulder Police Department to try to locate Megan. 

Our hearts are with Ms. Diaz and her family as they go through this trying time. I know that you will all want to reach out to her to offer support, but we ask that you respect her privacy during this time. 

In her absence, Assistant Principal Marc Rodriguez will be managing the school. 

Sincerely,

James Scott 
Executive Director
Elementary Collaboratives
