This month we will be conducting an A.L.i.C.E. Drill. A.L.i.C.E. (Alert, Lockdown, Inform, Counter, Evacuate) is a set of proactive strategies that increases chances of survival during an active shooter event. The purpose of conducting the drill is the same as the other safety drills we regularly conduct. It helps our staff and students be better prepared in the event of an emergency. Our staff participates in specialized training for this type of event and once a year we schedule a drill so that staff and students can practice and evaluate our current procedures.

In preparation for this drill, teachers will review the slideshow below with our students. Our friends in law enforcement will be here to assist with the drill.

To learn more about the training our staff has receives, please see the website below:

Dear Coyotes,

We are excited to announce that our Walk-A-Thon will be held on October 21, 2021. This year’s event will raise money for our Garden Program, Enrichment classes, and the new Birthday Books Program! We are asking students to collect pledges from family and friends for this healthy and fun walk/run event!

TK/Kindergarten students will participate on the small playground and grades 1-6 will participate on the big playground. Each class will be assigned a time to complete their walk-a-thon by walking laps around the playground. We will document laps with a tally mark on a popsicle stick each time a student finishes a lap. Students will take home their pledge sheet, collect money, and return it back to class by October 31, 2022.

Participation Times: Teachers will pass out popsicle sticks and help tally laps.
