Parents Say Questions Went Unanswered at Bromley East Safety Town Hall After Three Rounds Found on Campus

Leaders acknowledged slow updates during the Sept. 26 hold, with a full-time resource officer in the works as police continue the investigation.

Overview

  • Brighton Police confirmed three unspent rounds were found at Bromley East Charter School, with no weapon recovered and no identified offender.
  • Executive director Jennifer Shaver said the ammunition was first in a hallway and was later kicked into a classroom, adding that earlier communication should have included a timely status update.
  • Tuesday night’s town hall addressed only pre-submitted questions, which leaders condensed from more than 250, and several parents said responses lacked specifics.
  • During Friday’s roughly four-hour secure hold, officers and canine units searched the middle school, sixth-graders were screened, and dismissal procedures shifted after two additional rounds were located.
  • A student reported discovering one round, parents criticized chaotic pickup and limited information, and families pressed for an accountability plan following recent safety concerns at the school.
