High School Announcements

Wednesday, Sept. 8, 2010 (Day 6)

From the Office

On Monday, Sept. 13 at 10:20 am we will have a "Shelter In Place" drill. This means all students and adults will stay in the room, stay away from windows, pull shades and turn out lights when Dr. Hetzel makes the announcement. Students who are not in a room should seek shelter in the nearest classroom or office possible. This is a drill in the event there is civil unrest near the campus or an intruder on the campus. Please see your teacher if you have questions.
