Drill Notification
Student and staff safety is always our top priority. As part of our commitment to maintaining a safe learning environment, we conduct required safety drills throughout the school year. These drills help ensure that students and staff know what to do in the event of an emergency.
Our first safety drills of the year are:
- Evacuation Drill: Friday, August 21st
- Lockdown Drill: Tuesday, August 25th
We take these drills seriously and will communicate with students in an age-appropriate way before each drill.
If you have any questions or concerns about our safety procedures or upcoming drills, please contact your building principal.
Thank you for your continued partnership in keeping our school community safe!
