Good evening,
I hope everyone enjoyed their weekend.
I want to inform you that tomorrow (10/28) our school will be conducting an ALICE (Alert, Lockdown, Inform, Counter, Evacuate) overview and reviewing two scenarios as part of our safety protocols. This overview/drill will include the support of the Marlborough Police Department and other school resource officers, who will be on site to answer questions and debrief with school administration.
Your child's safety is our top priority, and we appreciate your support as we work together to ensure a secure environment.
Best,
Angela House
