Ecole Norwood Park – Lockdown Drill
Dear Families,
We are writing to inform you that Ecole Norwood Park will be holding a secure
schools protocol drill (Lockdown) on Friday, March 13th, at approximately 10:00 a.m. so that staff and students are prepared in case of an emergency.
Although these drills may sometimes involve a visit by members of the Hamilton Police Service, they will not be present at the school for this upcoming drill. Please make note of the date of this upcoming drill and discuss this with your child(ren).
“Lockdown” – Taking Place March 13th, 2026 at approximately 10:00 a.m.
We appreciate the co-operation of our students and staff during the drill, and also parent/guardians discussing this important drill with their child(ren) in advance of the drill.
It is also important that we all remain aware of secure schools terminology used in all of Ontario’s publicly funded schools. You can learn more about HWDSB’s approach to secure schools at: https://hwdsb.info/secureschools
Sincerely,
C. Evans (Principal)
