BMS Families,
Today we practiced a “Hold” drill in which we cleared the halls and locked our classroom doors. Teaching and learning continued as usual within the classroom. This lasted for about 10 minutes. We then practiced our monthly Fire Drill in which we used the “Evacuation” process outlined in our MSD Emergency Operations plan. Students were informed of the drill ahead of time by their classroom teachers. An announcement was made just before the alarm reminding students it was a drill.
We will practice various drills throughout the school year. Some will be announced, others will not. We will always communicate with families after the drill. We practice so we are ready in a real emergency.
If you have any questions or concerns, please contact Mrs. Johnston @ katie.johnston@meeker.k12.co.us or 970-878-9060 Ext 202.
Warmly,
Katie Johnston
BMS Principal
