This afternoon we had our 2nd tornado drill of the school year. Students and staff did an excellent job practicing this drill. By law we are required to have two tornado drills, with one required during the month of March, five fire drills, and three security/safety drills during the school year. Today's drill meets the requirement of two tornado drills for the 25-26 school year.
Drills are documented on our Clear Lake web page and will always be communicated through School Messenger after a drill has been conducted.
