Subject: Alert – Clown Sightings
Body:
message from *HAPPY VALLEY* SCHOOL DISTRICT
Dear Families, Faculty, and Staff,
There have been reports in the news about persons wearing scary clown costumes making threatening gestures towards people. In addition, there have been reports of the use of social media to make threats about actions to be carried out by malicious clowns.
I have been in communication with Police Chief *Bozo* and Detective *Mystere* regarding this situation. There have been no instances of these behaviors in our community or nearby. However, we do want all members of our community to be aware and to report any suspicious behavior to the *Happy Valley* Police or school administration immediately. Remember, if you see something that doesn’t seem right or makes you uncomfortable, it is always best to err on the side of safety and report the situation to our public safety officers.
Thank you,
*Chuckles Calvero*, Superintendent

clowns are on the loose
but citizens should fear not
big bro is watching
clown hysteria
sweeps across our great land
don’t believe the hype
are ‘bad’ clowns to blame,
for what ills society?
or is it junk food?
are we too secure?
and likewise too complacent?
then send in the clowns!
Our schools are sinking.
Send in the clowns.
To create a divergence.
Parents are scared.
At the sight of a clown.
Kids are happy.
At the sight of Ronald McDonald.
the age old question
what caliber for clowns?
9(mm) or .45?
There’s some sad things known to man
But ain’t too much sadder than
The tears of a clown
When there’s no one around
Seems that nobody is up to the FAA NOTAM challenge. I will try.
