Hello Families,
Today is the final day of our Safety Week and we will be participating in an evacuation drill. Only used in significant emergency situations, evacuations are just that-we leave the school campus. Today we will be back to normal no later than 9:45, having completed the drill in its entirety by then.
Again, just like all other drills this week, it has been clearly communicated to students that today's evacuation is a drill. All week, students and staff have been reviewing how each drill/situation would be handled from each classroom and area of the building.
Thank you,
Dr. D


Good Afternoon Oakesdale Families,
Normally when a fire drill occurs, you don't receive a notice from me. However, in keeping with the safety week communications, we are communicating that today was a fire drill and all went fine.
Following the fire drill, I did have a discussion with the middle and high school students about the swatting hoaxes that have gone on around the area and state. I communicated the importance of everyone paying attention to social media posts, emails, texts, and pretty much any other communication method-and to tell someone if they see any kind of threat, whether it be vague or not.
Further, I explained the importance of paying attention to behaviors of friends and others they know, whether from here or anywhere else-and if someone is "off" to please tell someone.
In the last several months, from last year to this, I have mailed several pieces of information regarding hoaxes around the local area and state. Please continue to pay attention that, and please let us know if you hear or see anything.
Thank you,
Dr. D


Hello,
Today's drill was a Shelter in Place. Today's drill was focused on if there was an exterior threat, such as a chemical spill in town; toxic fumes/gas in the air. Shelter in place involves students staying in classrooms, doors and windows being sealed, and no movement in or between buildings.
Just like each previous day, when the shelter in place was announced, it was clearly announced as a drill.
Thank you,
Dr. D


Don't forget to order your Tobra coffee!! Orders are due Friday. See a Junior if you are interested. #NighthawkProud
