Our annual Student Council Bonfire!
To Oiler Parents, Guardians and Community Members:
The safety of your child and all children in our school as well as the safety of the school staff and support personnel is very important to us. In order to maintain a safe environment for our children to study and learn, it is necessary that we practice our emergency and crisis response plans by having drills designed to exercise our procedures.
Today,11/02/2022 the District conducted an interactive school safety DRILL focusing on a “lockdown” situation.
EAWR CHS #14 would like to thank both the Wood River Police Department and Wood River Fire Department, for their coordination and participation in the designed drill.
As a reminder, “if you see or hear something, say something.” We encourage our students, families and staff to report any possible security issues to administration immediately. This can be done through our EAWR mobile app, under the “Report It” button.
We are proud of these ongoing efforts to keep our schools safe and are doing everything possible to ensure the continued safety of our students and staff. We appreciate your cooperation and support.
