Scheduled Lockdown Drill

As part of our Safe Schools procedures, the staff and students at Riddell will be participating in a Lockdown Practice on Monday, September 23  at approximately 1:45 p.m.  During the practice, our school doors will be locked and all entry/exit from the school will be restricted.

The term “Lockdown” used when there is a major incident or threat of school violence within the school, or in relation to the school. As part of our Secure School Protocol, the staff and student at R.A. Riddell practice lockdown procedures twice annually. Prior to each drill, teachers will have age appropriate discussions regarding the drill and their expectations. To ensure that there is no confusion, these rehearsals are clearly identified as drills via an announcement.

Please contact the school if you have any further questions regarding the lockdown procedures at R.A. Riddell.
