Emergency Drills

As one aspect of working to create a safe school environment, we have Emergency Drill plans in place and we practice those with our students throughout the school year. These Drills include Fire Drill, Tornado Drill, Lockdown Drill, and Bus Evacuation Drill. We practice these to ensure that in the case of an emergency, our students and staff are aware of what we can do to address the emergency safely.

On Thursday, September 8th, we will be practicing a Bus Evacuation Drill, Tornado Drill, Fire Drill, and a Lockdown Drill. Our staff will be talking to the students about them prior to that date and discussing the importance of being safe as well as what the expectations are of each.
