Dear Parents and Guardians,

We would like to inform you that Camas Ridge Community School will be conducting a practice

Lockdown drill on Wednesday October 22nd, at 12:30pm.

Drills are for staff and students, and are educational opportunities to practice life safety

skills. For example, evacuation drills/fire drills are conducted at schools regularly. A fire

The alarm goes off, students line up and head outside. Since there is no simulation of a

threat or hazard, these cause less trauma while imparting important skills and muscle

memory. 

Lockdown drills are similar. There is no simulated violence needed to conduct

them. The only information needed is for the protocol to be enacted, “Lockdown, locks,

lights, out of sight,” and then students and staff perform the proper functions.

For all our drills, we use the I Love You Guys- Standard Response Protocols (SRP). 

We encourage you to look at the I Love You Guys website to educate yourself on what it is.

And, if appropriate, to share what you’ve learned with your child. https://iloveuguys.org/The-Standard-Response-Protocol.html

The safety and well-being of your child is our top priority at Camas Ridge. We will continue to keep you informed about important concerns at our school.

(This information was also sent out in our twice a month communication).

Please contact Principal Hobie  if you have any questions.
