Dear Parent and Community Members,
This has been a difficult week for Bartlett ISD and our community. As some of you have probably heard, Coach Rice, one of our teachers died over Thanksgiving break. Bartlett ISD wants to keep parents informed about this situation. With permission from the Rice family, we will share the following statement with our middle and high school students:
Teacher Statement
It is with great sadness and family permission that I share with you the new that Coach Rice, one of our teachers, died over Thanksgiving break. This is unexpected and hard news to hear. All of us want you to know that we are here to support you in any way that we can. You might fell confused, shocked, sad, or angry upon hearing about this loss. You may also find that hearing about this death reminds you of other losses you have experienced. This is normal.
Each of us will react to his passing in our own way--we need to be respectful and supportive of each other. There are a range of natural emotional responses to death. Some of you may not have known this teacher very well while others knew him more closely. No matter your relation to Coach Rice, he was an important member of our School Family and any reaction that comes up for you is okay.
Some of you may have a hard time concentrating on schoolwork. We have mental health professionals available to take care of you today. They will be ready to talk to you in the library. If you'd like to talk to someone, please let a teacher know. It is possible that you may have thoughts and feelings come up later about Coach Rice's death. This is perfectly good reason to get in touch with one of them to seek support.
Please remember that we are all here to help one another in this difficult time.

Counselors from Intervention Services will be available for student and staff throughout the day, and will follow up as needed. We encourage parents to check in with their child(ren). To help, Intervention Services has put together helpful messages for parents/adults when talking about death with their children:
* We are going to be alright, even when bad things happen.
*We can pull together--talk and listen and be gentle with each other--in hard times.
*It is good to talk about all aspects of life--even pain and loss--and our mixed-up, confusing reactions, too.
*In the middle of pain, there is also joy and happiness and laughter.
*We are each allowed to have different feelings and reactions to the very same experience.
*We can express our feelings and still be expected to take care of business--with some flexibility, of course.
*It is OK to take time to be sad when someone you love is gone. It is important to
honor our attachments to people we love--to celebrate them in different ways, over time.
In case your family is interested in attending, the Rice family has also provided information about the funeral:
Saturday, December 7th at 10:00 am
