Some of you know that we recently had a lockdown drill and an off campus evacuation. For those of you who don't know what a lockdown is, a lockdown is when an intruder is near or at the school. What every class and building does is cover the windows and turn off the lights. Every student in a classroom goes on the opposite side of the room of where the door is during a lockdown. Everyone has to be quiet during a lock down as well. Now if you're not in a building or at a restroom during a lockdown, you have to go to the nearest classroom or building and flash your name tag on the door so people can trust you and let you in.
Now, the second drill is an evacuation. An evacuation is when everyone in the school goes across the street of the school. This happens when there's a bomb threat or a chemical leak. While walking, you have to be serious, it is not like a walk to the park. You have to speed walk and be quiet. Why? Well, if you don't speed walk, then it will take longer for other students behind you to get out of the school. And if you don't be quiet, you will distract other people, including yourself, from speed walking.
I want you guys to know that you shouldn't be scared, if you follow these rules, you will be fine and safe.
