A message from Benjamin G. Brown School Principal Kathleen Seward

I am writing to alert you to an incident that was reported after school yesterday.

After dismissal yesterday, January 24th, a fifth grade student was approached on the community bike path going into Davis Square by a man walking his dog. The man allegedly asked the student if he/she wanted candy. When the student responded no, the man asked if the student was sure/ The student said yes, and then the man continued walking his dog along the bike bath away from the square. There were no other words exchanged and no physical contact. When the student arrived home, the parent/guardian was alerted and a police report was filed.

The police have been working with the family and with me to follow up on the report. In the coming days, there will be an increased police presence along the bike path during the time of dismissal. As a school, we will be reviewing stranger danger guidelines with all students. If you see or hear anything related or similar to this incident, please do just as this family did and alert the police as well as me. As always, do not hesitate to call me with questions or for further clarification.

Best,
Kathleen Seward
