The Kieberger campus conducted an EVACUATE drill today, September 30. All our students and staff did a great job, way to go Panthers!
During the EVACUATE drill, students and staff exit the building to a location. An EVACUATE drill is very similar to a fire drill.
Drills are for staff and students, and are educational opportunities to practice life safety skills. We encourage you to talk with your child about today’s EVACUATE drill.

What is the EVACUATE Action?
The EVACUATE Action is called when there is a need to move people from one location to another for safety reasons. EVACUATE may be on-site, or offsite, and may be resolved quickly, result in early-dismissal, or require organized reunification of students and parents/guardians at another location. During EVACUATE, all students and staff move in an orderly fashion to a safe area.
Examples of EVACUATE Conditions
The following are some examples of when a school or emergency dispatch might call for an EVACUATE Action.
Power outage
Fire
Gas leak
Bomb threat
Event at the school that results in the school being deemed a crime scene

Welcome Back Panthers!
Back-to-School Safety Reminder!

Whether you're a student, parent, guardian, family member, or friend, we're all a part of Panther Nation! With school starting WEDNESDAY, let’s all do our part to keep our Panthers safe.

Kids crossing the street is something you can’t afford to miss!
Here’s how you can help prevent crashes and injuries:
✅ Stop and yield at crosswalks
✅ Slow down in school zones—and even before they start! (Early morning cross country practice means kids are out before sunrise!)
✅ Stop for school buses when the stop arm is out—it’s not just safe, it’s the law!

Let’s work together to make sure every Panther gets to and from school safely.
