Safety for all at PCS
On September 8th, our Director of Buildings and Grounds, Jay Burke, ran our first Fire Drill of the year. On September 27th, we worked with the bus company to review bus safety procedures during our annual Bus Evacuation Drill. All students in grades K-6 participated. On Tuesday, October 17th, Trooper Carmichael and Chief Cooley worked with ALL staff on Lock Down Training. This training will be followed up with some Lock Down drills at PCS; the first one being on Monday, October 23rd around 10:30 a.m. All students will be informed prior by their grade level teacher.
