Funeral Arrangements Made for Shelley Lazarus
(Rob Glass, Superintendent of Bloomfield Hills Schools, Dec. 8, 2014)
Last week we received tragic news. We learned that one of our Eastover staff members, Shelley Lazarus, died after a serious car accident. Shelley was the Eastover Media Specialist and worked for Bloomfield Hills Schools since 1988. Her husband, Eric Lazarus, the Caretaker for the Bloomfield Hills Schools E.L. Johnson Nature Center, was traveling with her in the car and is in the hospital. Our thoughts are with him and the entire Lazarus family at this time.
Please know, there will be counselors and social workers available for students and staff who may need to talk about their feelings. If you have any concerns about your child’s reactions to this loss, please contact your child’s teacher, the school, or administrative staff.

Sincerely,
Rob Glass, Superintendent
