Please wait in your vehicles. Thank you! Ms. Barker

Parents and Guardians,
Today we practiced a Lock Down Drill at school. This drill is required and involves locking doors, turning out lights, practicing being silent, and getting out of sight of the windows in classrooms. Our students did very well and the drill was over quickly, but I wanted to give you a heads up in case your child comes home with further questions.
Thank you, Ms. Barker
