Fall Update!
As we wrap up the first month of the school year, I want to take a moment to reflect on our progress and share important safety updates.
Safety First
The safety of our students and staff remains our top priority. As I reported earlier in the year, our school’s have prioritized safety drill practice and preparation this year. We use the Standard Response Protocol to guide our response to all emergencies, whether natural disasters or threats of violence. For each month of the school year, our schools will train on a specific emergency response identified in the Standard Response Protocol. In September, schools practiced the Evacuation response. In addition to emergency response preparedness, we also added fencing and security personnel to the B-EHS campus. And lastly, our collaboration with local law enforcement continues to strengthen our community’s safety measures, including through grant funding that has allowed us to make safety improvements to our facilities, including adding fencing, electronic locking systems and panic buttons.
Thank you for your partnership and support. I look forward to sharing more updates in the coming months!
Sincerely,
Dr. Chris Pearson, Superintendent
