Earthquake Drill on October 21 at 10:21 a.m.
October Security Drill on Friday, October 22
Dear Parents and Guardians,
The Red Lion Area School District continues to provide safety drills and trainings as part of the requirements set forth by Act 44 of 2018. In conjunction with with National School Safety Week, on Friday, October 22, 2021, the Red Lion Area School District will hold a School Safety and Security Drill.
The October School Security Drill will focus on hiding/locking down, in a classroom in the event of an intruder. An announcement will be made that a drill is starting, following which, teachers will turn out their classroom lights, cover their doors, and have the classroom remain silent until the conclusion of the drill. Due to the recent Covid-19 related recommendations from the Department of Health (DOH), students will remain at their desks during the intruder announcement and de-briefing.
Please speak with your child about the above information. Conversations regarding this sensitive topic will greatly improve your child’s overall preparedness should an emergency situation occur. We appreciate your support as we work to make the school environment even safer. Your child’s safety is our greatest priority.
