Dear Parents/Guardians,
The Van Cortlandtville Elementary School completed a practice Outdoor Lockdown/Evacuation Drill today, Thursday, May 12th during recess. As a school community, we can never be too cautious when it comes to the safety of our children. The purpose of the drill is to review all safety procedures and protocols.
As a reminder, an Emergency Lockdown/Evacuation Drill:
- is an exercise performed to train staff and occupants and to evaluate their efficiency and effectiveness in carrying out lockdown and emergency evacuation procedures.
- is to review all safety procedures and protocols.
The Evacuation Drill included Van Cortlandtville’s Administration and SRO.
The students did an excellent job of following staff directions during the drill and were cooperative, quiet, and serious. We appreciate your cooperation and assistance in discussing safety with your child. Should you have any questions, please feel free to contact the office.
Sincerely,
Jacqueline M. Woodruff
