Emergency Procedure Drills

High school students participated in the first fire drill of the school year this past week. The drills went well and we will continue to both practice and review our fire drill procedures with students during the course of the year.

Over the next few weeks, we will begin to discuss additional emergency procedures with our students. These will include our procedures for both evacuation and lock down drills. Our intention in sharing our procedures is not to increase anxiety about potential risk situations, but rather to reduce the worry that some students may experience. 

Later in the month, we will be conducting simple emergency response drills and we will keep parents informed. Please check my blog often for news.
