Thursday, November 5th, APS will be conducting an evacuation and reunification drill at the school.
You may notice an increased police/first responder presence in the areas near the school building and surrounding blocks.
Please know this is a planned drill as part of our ongoing efforts to practice and prepare for emergency situations and ensure the safety of our students and staff. This also gives our local first responder teams an opportunity to practice and interact with our students in a safe and positive way.
Thank you for your understanding and support!
