RE:  Potential Threat Received on December 16, 2022

Dear Parents and Families,

Today, New Millennium Academy (NMA) was made aware of a potential violent threat against a few identified scholars and the school in general. NMA takes all threats seriously and will not tolerate any acts of violence or threats against anyone in our school community. School safety is our top priority and we have taken the necessary actions to ensure that our school community is safe.

Upon receiving information about the potential violent threat, NMA:

  • Immediately contacted Brooklyn Center Police Department where they will complete their full investigation against those responsible.
  • Our leadership team secured the school building and classrooms to ensure that all scholars and staff were safe while an investigation was ongoing.
  • Conducted an internal investigation alongside law enforcement and interviewed all persons involved.
  • Followed up with disciplinary actions and informed families of persons involved. 

If you or your child hear of any specific threat to our school, we ask that you please report it immediately. Thank you for your partnership in keeping our school community safe.  

Meanwhile, our Toys For Tots event scheduled for tomorrow will resume as normal.  We will have security onsite to support this event. 

Thank you. 

Kevin Xiong

Executive Director

Distance Learning: January 3rd & 4th

Dear Families,

Due to the ongoing risk of illness, the executive leadership team has collectively decided that after returning from winter break on Monday, January 2nd, 2023, we will be starting off the year with a digital model on Tuesday, January 3rd, 2023 and Wednesday, January 4th, 2023.

Scholars in K-5 will have educational materials sent home in a packet and scholars in Grades 6-8 will be sent home with assignments on their Google Classrooms before Winter Break.

In addition, Terra, our school nurse, has been distributing take-home COVID tests to classrooms for scholars, and we would like for all scholars to take a COVID test before returning on Jan. 5th.

If you have any questions or concerns, please contact our front office at 763-235-7900. Thank you for your cooperation in keeping our community safe!
