Please be assured that this is a planned drill, not an actual emergency. Students will be informed that they are participating in a drill, and staff will guide them through the appropriate procedures.
We recognize the importance of helping students feel safe and secure at school while also ensuring they are prepared for emergencies. Thank you for your continued support as we work to maintain a safe learning environment for everyone.
