First Fire Drill Success

August 31, 2023

Today we had our first fire drill. It was a huge success and thank you to Officer Hartman and Officer Parker for being in attendance and providing a debriefing. High marks coming from them on the focus and discipline of the students to get out quickly and safely. The teachers did an excellent job training them over the first few weeks of school.
