Statewide Tornado Drills
Thursday's emergency preparedness topic is tornados. Statewide tornado drills will take place on Thursday, April 16 at 1:45 p.m. and 6:45 p.m. Outdoor warning sirens will sound in a simulated tornado warning. The 1:45 p.m. drill is intended for schools, businesses, and other organizations and will be observed by our district during the school day. The evening drill at 6:45 p.m. is intended for families and community members. This is a great opportunity for schools to review emergency plans with students and staff and encourage families to discuss severe weather safety and preparedness at home.
