Brener News
November 1st 2022
Wednesday 2nd, at Olga Brener, we practiced ALICE.
Brener Families,
WHY are we practicing? The safety of our students and staff is a top priority. In order to educate and just like we practice for other safety issues such as fire or severe weather, SSD protects students and staff with ALICE. ALICE is a federally endorsed safety protocol. The letters ALICE stand for Alert, Lockdown, Inform, Counter and Evacuate.
Under ALICE training, staff and students are oriented to different options to respond to a school intruder who is intent on doing harm. In certain circumstances, the “lock the door and hide” strategy might be appropriate. In some cases, the teacher and students might take precautions to barricade the entrance(s) of the classroom. Under certain conditions, it might be the best decision for the teacher and students to flee the building. It is the intention of ALICE that the strategies we provide will increase the chances that our staff and students will survive if a terrible circumstance of an armed intruder ever were to occur. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact the school.
Yours in Education,
Matt Peterson, Principal
