Carroll Leadership in Technology Magnet Middle School |
Good Afternoon Carroll Cougars! This is your principal Ms. Keech with this week’s announcements. A copy of this transcript will be shared through the Carroll Yahoo Email Group.
We wish for you to know that our hearts go out to the families and the community involved in the tragic incident in Conn.In light of that event we want to assure you that the safety and welfare of our students is our number one priority.We have a comprehensive district-wide Emergency Operations plan to ensure schools, security, local law enforcement, emergency personnel and central office all work together quickly and efficiently to handle any emergency situation.We have our own emergency response plan following district guidelines. Every teacher, student and staff member knows their specific roles and rehearse through drill at least once a year .Our school lockdown procedures go immediately into affect when a safety concern arises at campus. You may recall , at Carroll we have already conducted a Lockdown drill in October and are planning on doing another one soon.We continually review our emergency plans, work closely with law enforcement and emergency responders, and update plans as needed to increase effectiveness. A Raleigh police department officer was actually here this morning walking our campus to familiarize himself with the layout.If you have any further questions or concerns, please go to the link found on our district website or contact me at [email protected] This is our last week in school prior to Winter break.We will also be having an early release on Friday for teacher professional development.Even though our students may be getting really excited in preparation for the break, please remind them that we are continuing to work and learn each day and school rules still apply. Please also remember to not come to our office and ask for us to sign your child out early after 2:00pm.We are extremely busy at that time getting ready for bus dismissal and are unable to accommodate your request and retrieve your child. Many thanks to our wonderful PTA for an excellent Flapjack Fundraiser this past Saturday.We all had a wonderful time listening to music and eating some great pancakes! Hope you all have a wonderful winter break and we look forward to your return on January 2nd. That’s all for now. Gooooooo Cougars!
