Superintendent Linus Guillory Jr. and Police Chief Jennifer Paster report that a Brookline Public Schools student was indecently assaulted, while walking between classes on Monday.
On Monday, September 16, 2024, at approximately 1:00 p.m., a female student was walking between Brookline Public Schools buildings on Tappan Street, when she was inappropriately touched by an unidentified man.
The student notified school staff, who contacted Brookline Police.
Brookline Police continue to investigate this incident and are seeking to identify a suspect.
Brookline High School staff members saw to the student’s needs, and administrators are now planning to boost supervision between classes.
“We ask students to be mindful of their surroundings as they move about our campus,” said Superintendent Guillory. “While BHS is a safe campus, our high school complex consists of multiple buildings and students move about on public streets. Students, staff and all community members are urged to remain aware of their surroundings at all times and report any suspicious activity to any school staff member.”
Additional media inquiries should be directed to Brookline Police Deputy Supt. Paul Campbell at pcampbell@brooklinema.gov.
