On Wednesday, September 27th, we conducted a review of our emergency protocols and procedures with students, staff, and local law enforcement officials. The Concord Police Department, the Concord Fire Department in conjunction with neighboring law enforcement personnel, including individuals from Acton, Bedford, and the State Police, along with CCHS staff and administration reviewed our response options for dealing with an emergency situation. At the conclusion of the emergency drill, we utilized the Advisory program to review our emergency protocols in a small group setting.
On Monday Detective Camilleri provided an overview of the A.L.I.C.E (Alert, Lockdown, Inform, Counter, Evacuate) emergency response system with members of the freshmen class, as well as all new students. The emergency drill that transpired this morning is part of ongoing training efforts with students and staff.
Although these are routine exercises, we encourage you to talk with your child about the drills they participated in this morning. We take pride in running a school that is safe, organized, and focused on teaching and learning. Safety resides at the top of that list.
It is important to remind everyone that schools remain extremely safe places to be.
If you have questions or comments, please contact our School Resource Officer, Det. Scott Camilleri (scamilleri@concordma.gov) or email me directly.
At the conclusion of the drill, we sent a text alert to all students notifying them that the drill was complete. This is how we plan to provide real-time information in the case of an emergency. If the notification was not received, we do not have the student's cell phone number. Please follow the link to a previous blog for instructions on how to update student cell phone information in Aspen.
