Her letter addresses the national attention that has been brought upon the school and students.
This letter comes several days after Cox ordered a group from Erin Brockovich's team, who visited the LeRoy Junior-Senior High School on Saturday, to leave school grounds.
The team was in town to collect samples from the school grounds and other parts of the town to get some ground samples they believe could shed some light on why a cluster of female students at the school developed tics, twitches and verbal outbursts last fall.
