Rachel's Challenge
Safety and Security meeting
Did you know? We are required to have a fire drill each month. We also are required to practice "lockdown" drills three times a year, shelter in place for weather, AED, and reverse evacuation drills twice a year. Mrs. Lafara, our campus assistant principal, is in charge of emergency management planning and she also employs a group of teachers and staff members who talk about our drills and plans and works to improve them on a regular basis.
If you have any questions or concerns about safety at Glenhope, please feel free to contact me or Mrs. Lafara. We'll be happy to talk through concerns and listen to suggestions you might have.
