Happy Friday, Junior Falcons!

- We wanted to let you know that we are planning at least one required emergency drill during the week of Oct. 21-25. The safety of everyone in our school community is extremely important. Holding these practice drills is crucial to our overall emergency planning. In addition to next week's events, we will conduct planned drills throughout the school year and will notify you in advance of those drills as well. Before we practice a drill, we teach students, faculty and staff about the procedures to follow in an emergency. We talk about how the drill will be announced and we inform students and employees that it is a drill. If you have any questions, please contact your school's main office.
