Drills For Safety
During the school year we practice several drills in the event of an emergency for student and staff safety. We do fire drills, high wind drills and lock down drills.

Fire dills are done at least once a month. Students practice leaving the building when the fire alarm sounds.

High wind drills are practiced at least twice a year. Students are trained how to protect themselves in the event of high winds. Any time we’re under a tornado warning, we have students in the high wind position.

Lock down drills are done at least twice a year. Students are trained what to do in the event of a Code Red Emergency. Students and staff are kept in their secured classroom until the building is deemed safe. No visitors or parents are allowed in the building if they arrive during the drill. Likewise, if a parent or visitor is in the building during the drill, they will remain in a secure area and not permitted to leave until the drill is completed.
