Safety Drills (EBBC)

Throughout the school year, your child will be trained in emergency procedures and will be taught how to react, where to assemble, and what to expect in an emergency. This will be accomplished through fire drills, severe weather drills, and lock-down drills. While it can be unsettling to think about situations that require an emergency response, 25 frequent review and practice will help to reduce risk and help both staff and students prepare for an actual event. Following an emergency scenario practice drill, your child may wish to share their experience with you. If so, this would be an excellent time to review the information and procedures as a family.
