As part of our ongoing school safety program, we will be conducting a lock-down drill on campus this week. As in the past, parents are asked to schedule any necessary visits to campus either before or after the drill, which will take place this Thursday between 2:00 and 2:30 p.m. Faculty and administrators will be reviewing drill procedures with all students in age-appropriate ways prior to the drill. Officers from the Maplewood Police Department will again be observing our drill and providing feedback on our procedures, as well as the speed and efficiency with which the drill is undertaken. Thank you for your cooperation.
