Columbiana Middle School and High School conducted a full scale lock down and evacuation drill this afternoon in conjunction with the School district SRO officers, Columbiana Police, Fire and EMS. Additionally, the Columbiana Sherriff Department and the county Special Response Team assisted in the drills today. Many thanks to those agencies for their support in this very important drill.
Our students and staff were outstanding in their response and implementation of todays drills. Thank you for a job well done. We expect to review the process and make adjustments to improve our school safety procedures and overall program.
Thank you for your cooperation and have a great rest of your week!
Go Clips!
