Scheduled Drill
As part of our commitment to safety and security preparedness, our students and staff will practice various drills throughout the year. This will help ensure that our students are able to react quickly in the case of an actual emergency. This year HB 147 requires that schools conduct an intruder alert drill prior to October 1. Schley County will hold its drill Wednesday, September 6th. Our goal will be to communicate with students so they can be familiar with what to do in an emergency situation. Schley County First Responders and Emergency Management personnel will also participate in order for them to be prepared, as well. Practicing various drills is a critical step in ensuring our students are prepared to react quickly and are practiced and comfortable with emergency plans.
