FIRE DRILLS / EVACUATION PLANS

Safety drills are serious matters. Look for posted fire drill and tornado drill maps and read the instructions. When the signal for a fire drill is given, proceed quickly and quietly in the direction shown by the fire drill map or as instructed by school personnel. Go single file down the hall, proceed outside the building to the location directed by the teacher, and do not talk. Stay with the class so that roll can be taken. Remain outside until the signal is given to return to your class.

When a tornado drill is initiated, assume a duck-and-cover position on an interior wall away from glass or machinery. Remain in this position until given instructions by the teacher/administrator.

During earthquake drills, duck and cover and then evacuate the building as directed.

During safety drills, students should follow all staff instructions without question.

NOTE: Anyone found tampering with the fire alarm system is subject to expulsion.
