DON'T
If something happens...
Don't rush to the school
Coming to school may put you or your child at great risk. Additional people on the scene distract first responders from their primary job – student safety. Instead, check our website, twitter feed, your email, or your phone for information and instructions.
Don’t call the school or district office
Resources are stretched thin during emergencies. Incoming calls take away from our ability to get updates to you through our website, email, and phone calls.
