SCA Back to School Bash! Friday, August 25 @5:00pm

Dear Parents: Today SCA completed a fire drill at 1:09pm which is required on a month basis. We also conducted a tornado drill where all students were asked to kneel and cover their heads in a safe secure area at 1:20pm. Our Eagle scholars did a fantastic job! We explained the purpose for this drill and ensured each person understood the importance. Please know safety is our number one priority! With that being said, we will conduct random drills monthly. Fire drills, tornado drills, lockdown/lockout drills, and active intruder drill. We encourage your participation by speaking with your child on how important it is for each child to listen, follow instructions, and to take each drill seriously. Thanks for your support! SCA Admin
