For this drill, we will relocate by walking to the Christian Community Center across the street from our school. Upon return to the campus the students will re-enter the building and return to their classrooms. Should we have inclement weather on this day, we may pivot to an alternate evacuation location inside the school ( e.g. gymnasium, auditorium, etc.). • The drill will conclude with an announcement reviewing the drill after the students and staff have returned to their classrooms We would like to thank you and your child(ren) in advance for your cooperation in helping to make this drill a success. I would encourage you to discuss with your child(ren) to take the drill seriously and to use it as a learning experience. The safety of our students is of great importance.
