Congratulations to our Panther Pride Wall Recipients!

Wild Rose Families,

Earlier this week you received a district communication detailing D303’s efforts to enhance safety procedures for our students. In August, D303 educators took part in online and in-person ALICE training, which stands for Alert, Lockdown, Inform, Counter, and Evacuate. As a result of this training, we are prepared to deliver age-appropriate lessons to our students, which will teach an options-based approach when responding to critical incidents.

Starting the week of September 30th, students in 4th and 5th grade will view an informational video, introducing them to the concepts of ALICE. Then throughout the fall students will engage in six lessons, roughly two lessons per month, with each lesson focusing the core ALICE concepts: Situational Awareness, Alert, Lockdown, Inform, and Evacuate.

Lessons are differentiated based on age-appropriateness and broken down into the following age groups:

• Early Childhood-Kindergarten

• 1st Grade-3rd Grade

• 4th-5th Grade

• Middle School

• High School

D303’s Safety and Security website has been updated to include informational ALICE resources, such as parent letters for each lesson. Students will participate in their first safety drill utilizing the ALICE concepts in January. For more information you are encouraged to visit the ALICE Family and Community site.

If you have any questions specific to your child’s learning, feel free to contact me at theresa.solomon@d303.org.

Mrs. Theresa Solomon
