Dear First
Grade Parents and Guardians,
Today, November 20th at 1:45pm (during
specials) your child participated in an Intruder Drill at Rock Bridge
Elementary.
Today all
first grade teachers taught their students ALICE,
which stands for:
A – Alert – You will hear an alert.
L – Lockdown – Lock your door and put things
in front of it.
I – Inform – You will get further information to help you know what to do next.
C – Counteract – If needed, throw things to distract or hurt the intruders.
E – Evacuate – If you are able to run from the building, go to your school’s safe spot.
We showed
our students a video called “ALICE – Your Feet Will Know Where to Go” created
by Cedar Ridge students and staff members.
You can view the video here: http://bit.ly/VnIXdy.
From the
video, your child also learned that an intruder is: “an unwelcome person that
can come and cause danger” and who can “be dressed in any clothing and could be
carrying a weapon.” Students also
learned to “stay calm, be brave, and listen to the instructions your teacher
gives you.”
Please
remember that we practice Intruder Drills and other drills (Fire, Severe
Weather, and Earthquake) to help students and staff to be prepared if an emergency
occurred.
If you have
any questions, please contact your child’s teacher, Dr. Ryan Link or
Ms. Bonita
Benson.
Sincerely,
RBE First
Grade Teachers
