Dear Parents and Guardians,
This afternoon, our elementary school will be conducting a practice lockdown drill as part of our ongoing commitment to student safety and emergency preparedness.
Please be assured that this is only a drill and there is no cause for concern. These procedures help ensure that our students and staff know what to do in the unlikely event of an actual emergency.
We appreciate your support in helping us maintain a safe and secure learning environment. If you have any questions, feel free to contact the school office.
Thank you,
Mr. Pape
