Safety is a top priority at Walteria, and we want to ensure our students and staff are prepared in case of an emergency. On Wednesday, April 3, at approximately 11:00 a.m., Walteria will be conducting a fire drill where we will pull the real fire alarm. The fire alarm will sound, and all students and staff will practice evacuating safely and efficiently. This is only a drill, and the fire department will be notified in advance. We appreciate your support in reinforcing the importance of fire safety with your child. If you have any questions, please contact the school office.
