🌟 Good evening, everyone! 🌟
We’re excited to share some great news! Thanks to the Federal COPs grant we received in 2022, we upgraded our security systems to ensure a safer environment for our students & staff. This includes new security cameras, PA system, and an alert system for weather & safety announcements. 📸🔊⚠️
Tomorrow, Sept. 4th, our dedicated staff will be participating in training on this new system and practicing emergency drills in the schools ensuring we are prepared and ready to keep our school community safe.
Thank you for your continued support as we work together to create a secure and nurturing environment for our students! 💙 #SafetyFirst #CalhounCountySchools
