Evacuation & Reunification DRILL
LaCreole Evacuation/Reunification DRILL Friday April 27th
This Friday April 27, our school will take part in an evacuation and reunification drill. We want to have an opportunity to test our systems and protocols in a way that gives our school and our district much-needed feedback about what works and where we need more support.
Typically, this type of drill is designed to surprise and test preparedness. For us, being that we haven't had opportunity to take part in a drill of this size, it is more about the practice and value for district planning.
We advertise the date to eliminate as much inconvenience as possible so we can create a situation that is truly beneficial. We will not, however, advertise the location of our drill, so that we can accurately test the reunification facility and get a better picture of traffic patterns to and from the location.
We encourage all parents to send their students to school on Friday. It would be easy to disregard this day as it will have little to do about academic instruction but, in our mind, this day will be valuable in so many other ways.
One final reminder, students can only be released to an authorized parent/guardian or an emergency contact who is on file with the school. REMEMBER TO BRING PHOTO ID.
