Code Yellow Today

I just want to let you know that today we had to call a Code Yellow just before the start of school for a medical emergency. A Code Yellow is used to quickly and efficiently clear the hallways of students and staff so that administration and/or Crisis Team members may deal with a situation without excessive attention and unnecessary distractions. Another benefit is that it increases confidentiality for those involved. 

Staff and students were excellent in their response, and the EMT's and front office staff were able to quickly 'clear' the Code Yellow alert, and allow the school to return to normal operations before the start of first period.
