Secure Safe School Procedures

Franklin Road will be holding 6 fire drills this year, 1 evacuation drill, 1 Shelter in Place drill, 1 Hold and Secure drill, and 2 lockdown drills. Some of these drills will be announced prior to the drill occurring and shared with the school community, while others may be unannounced so we can help better prepare students and staff in the event of an emergency. Our first fire drill will occur on Wednesday, September 21st in the morning. We will continue to practice two more fire drills through the month of September and three more during the spring. One of the two Lockdown drills will occur in early to mid October and the second in the spring as well. The remaining drills will occur throughout the fall. An announcement will be made to students the day of the first Fire Drill and when we initiate a Lockdown drill. The Principal or Vice-Principal and teachers will review important safety procedures for students prior to beginning the drill.
