    August 29, 2014
    Dear Parents,
    I am very sorry to report to you that a teacher at Gavin South Middle School, Michael R. Vucic, has been issued an arrest warrant for alleged inappropriate contact with one of our students who used to attend our school district.
    The Lake County Sheriff contacted the administration on August 26 and we immediately cooperated with their investigation. The teacher was not at school that day and has not had any contact with our students since. In working with law enforcement, the teacher is banned from school property. The timing of this letter is related to when the arrest warrant was issued.
    While I understand you will have additional questions, this is a police matter now and we must allow them time to conduct a thorough investigation. During the course of the investigation, any information regarding this matter will come directly from law enforcement.
    If you have any questions or information related to this matter, please contact Detective Wendell Russell at the Lake County Sheriff’s office, 847-549-5200.
    I appreciate your patience during this difficult time.
    Sincerely,
