14 de febrero de 2023
Con gran tristeza compartimos esta información con la comunidad de Dalhart.
Alrededor del mediodía de ayer, se desarrolló un incidente que involucró a miembros jóvenes de nuestra querida comunidad. Los detalles del incidente se retienen en este momento debido a una investigación.
Un incidente aislado que involucró un arma de fuego resultó en el fallecimiento de Preston Ralston (15), quien era estudiante en la Escuela Secundaria de Dalhart. En ningún momento hubo una situación de tirador activo. A pedido de las fuerzas del orden público para la seguridad de nuestros profesores y estudiantes, DISD se cerró mientras las fuerzas del orden investigaban la situación. Cuando se determinó que no había amenaza, el Distrito eliminó el aislamiento.
Un poco antes de las 14:00 horas el Distrito informó a los padres sobre el incidente y les informó que no había amenaza para los estudiantes, que el campus de la escuela secundaria dejaría salir a los estudiantes a las 2:00 p. m. y los otros campus saldrían en horarios regulares.
Por respeto a las familias, nuestros estudiantes, profesores y todos los involucrados, le pedimos su comprensión ya que las fuerzas del orden público no responderán preguntas específicas hasta que se haya completado una investigación exhaustiva. Cualquier información que pueda tener se puede compartir con el jefe de policía de Dalhart, Tommy Hughes, ya que él dirige la investigación del incidente.
En este momento, enfatizamos la necesidad de oraciones por nuestra comunidad. Abraza a tus seres queridos y aprecia tu tiempo con ellos. La comunidad y el Distrito Escolar tienen consejeros profesionales disponibles para hablar con cualquier persona que lo necesite. El equipo de crisis del Centro de Servicios Educativos de la Región 16 y el equipo de la Alianza Ministerial de Dalhart están en la escuela secundaria para ayudar a cualquier estudiante o miembro de la facultad que necesite hablar con alguien. El Distrito continuará monitoreando y satisfaciendo las necesidades de nuestros estudiantes durante el resto de la semana y posteriormente, según sea necesario.
Cuando se le preguntó si había un mensaje para el público, la familia de Preston aconsejó: “Queremos que todos sepan que esto fue un accidente. Queremos que los involucrados sepan que sabemos que esto fue un accidente”.
Atentamente,
Chief Tommy Hughes Superintendent Jeff Byrd

DALHART INDEPENDENT SCHOOL DISTRICT
News Release
The Dalhart ISD Board of Trustees voted unanimously to accept the recommendation of the District's Facility Committee to call for a $50 million bond package for the May 6, 2023, Election.
The District's Facility Committee developed and recommended the bond package, representing a cross-section of the community, including local citizens, business leaders, parents, and school staff. The committee studied a district-wide facility assessment and district financial information and toured all campuses. Over more than a year, members met to assess and prioritize critical areas of focus; the consensus was to recommend that Dalhart ISD call a bond for the following:
• Construction of a new intermediate campus to be designed to accommodate grades three through five initially while allowing for additions to accommodate PK through fifth grade at some point in the future
• Renovations to the current elementary and middle school campuses
• District-wide HVAC replacement and upgrades
• Renovations to the baseball/softball complex
"On behalf of the Board of Trustees, I would like to express my gratitude to the committee for coming together again to discuss the needs of the district said Bob Bailey, president of the Dalhart ISD board of trustees. Bailey states, "The information provided allowed us as a board to unanimously call this election with a proposal that reflects the values of those we represent."
Election Day is set for Saturday, May 6, and early voting runs from April 24 through May 2.
More information will be posted and available soon through the district's website.
Please contact Jeff Byrd at 806-244-7810 for any questions regarding the Dalhart ISD Bond.
