School Safety Drill - Held on Monday, October 23
Due to trends in school safety incidents, our faculty and staff are regularly trained by the Green Bay Police Department to stay current with these new trends and use techniques to keep our students safe if there is a threat to their safety.
For over ten years, Notre Dame Academy staff have been trained on the principles of “Run, Hide, Fight” when a situation threatens the safety of students or staff. “Run, Hide, Fight,” developed through the Department of Homeland Security, empowers students and staff to find safe solutions to their particular circumstances when their safety is threatened until police are on site to neutralize the threat.
Our staff has always engaged our students in informal conversations about these concepts whenever they ask what they would do in a particular circumstance. In the last few years, we have been conducting school safety drills where we formally engage students in a discussion with a staff member on what to do when their safety is threatened. On Monday (October 23), at the beginning of 3rd period, we conducted another “Scenario-Based Safety Drill.” Students and staff were given a possible scenario that threatened their safety, and then they discussed possible solutions and options to employ under the circumstances. Administrators and the Green Bay Police Department reviewed their responses to these scenarios. “Scenario-Based Safety Drills” aim to empower and educate students on remaining safe at school and in public.
Our goal at NDA is to provide a safe and secure environment for our students to succeed. As always, if you or your student has questions, please direct them to a member of the Administration.
