* Lock Down Drill, 2:00 pm - For this drill, an announcement will be made that we are entering a lockdown drill.  Please take this time to review the ALICE procedure, which can be found here.  Explain to students what the acronym means and what each step may look like.  You can also remind students that when/if we were to evacuate, the goal would be to use the nearest accessible exit and reunification would be determined based on the exit that was taken.  It could include the middle school, board office, or the stores west of the school and across the bridge on Champaign.  Another announcement will be made at the conclusion of the drill.
