This morning we practiced a Shelter in Place Safety Drill. We practice safety drills monthly to make sure we are prepared in the event of an actual emergency. Today was only a drill. There was no actual emergency.During a Shelter in Place, students and staff are brought inside the building and all exterior doors are locked. School activities are allowed to proceed as normal inside the school.
The front door of the school is manned by a school administrator or police officer during the Shelter in Place. Unless otherwise directed, parents and visitors will not be allowed on the campus until the protocol is lifted. Depending on the circumstance, a Shelter in Place may last anywhere from a few minutes to several hours. If the protocol extends beyond the end of the school day, parents will receive communication regarding pick up accommodations and any disrupted bus schedules.
