We take safety and security seriously. It is important that we maintain a safe and caring community so that learning can take place.
Visitors & Volunteers
Our school is a closed campus. All visitors and volunteers must report directly to the main office to sign-in and request permission from the school administration to be in the school. This process helps us know where you are in case of an emergency and allows staff and students to know you have signed-in with the office staff by wearing your volunteer/visitor badge.
In order to ensure school security, all exterior doors will be locked after school commences each day. Anyone who is not a student or school staff member is required to sign-in.
Student Searches
In the event that school safety and security is a concern administration has the right to complete searches of student lockers, student property or personal belongings at any time.
Emergency Response and Fire Drills
Fire drills and emergency response drills will be held throughout the year to practice student safety procedures. All students, staff, volunteers and additional visitors in the school must participate in all drills. If we have a situation where we have to leave the school for an extended time (i.e. water main break), our alternate location is Colonel Macleod School. If we are unable to return to the school before school dismissal an emergency contact system will be put in place to quickly, efficiently and safely to inform all the people affected.
