Hamilton Fire Response Today

As you may know, we had a visit by the Hamilton Fire Department today. I wanted to explain why.

At about 10 a.m. today, a cooking smell from our nutrition room led us to pull a fire alarm.

No fire occurred and students remained safe. As per the HWDSB Fire Safety Plan, we evacuated our school and called 911. Students were outside for about 15 minutes.

The Hamilton Fire Department responded and inspected the school. They quickly gave us the approval to re-enter the school.

We wanted to bring it to your attention in case your child mentions it.

Thank you for your understanding,

Joanna Crapsi
Principal
