Dear Parents and Guardians:

This letter is to inform you about a serious incident that occurred today at Charles Herbert
Flowers High School.

Earlier today, there was an alleged physical altercation between a student and Principal
Gorman Brown. The circumstances are under investigation. Mr. Brown has been placed on
leave until further notice. Assistant Principal Ronald Miller will serve as Administrator in Charge
in the interim.

The safety of our students and staff members is our top priority. Safe learning environments are
our collective responsibility. Today’s incident is not in line with our school mission and values.
Please discuss with your child acceptable behaviors that support a positive school climate.
Concerns about safety or well-being should be shared with a trusted adult.

As more information becomes available, we will update you and the school community.
If you have any questions or concerns, please contact Dr. Carletta Marrow, Associate
Superintendent of High Schools at (301) 669-6000.

Thank you for your continued support of Charles Herbert Flowers High School.

Sincerely,

Carletta T. Marrow, Ed.D.
