I think setting an atmosphere of not talking about what happened would be negative. We had a teacher die for a health issue a few years ago and I think saying she won’t be back teaching any more would have been insulting everyone’s intelligence. Not quite analogous but openess here is likely appropriate.
I assume given the break in the school year that they have child psychologists and teachers making the plan and are informing parents about what they will be doing in advance.

I think when bad things happen it's important we never talk about it, make up excuses, and bury our feelings. That'll work out well for everyone.
