Safety Letter

Antioch Unified School District is committed to the safety and well-being of all students and staff. Throughout the school year, Jack London Elementary School students and staff practice different drills in an event of an emergency. Regularly practiced drills at Jack London are fire drills and earthquake drills.

A new drill to Jack London this year is the Run, Hide, Defend drill, which is intended to prepare the campus for an incident involving a dangerous person, animal, or situation that could potentially occur at school.

Please review the attached letter regarding this drill. It is scheduled to occur on Thursday, March 21st, and we will be practicing the “Hide” step, which is similar to a lockdown. Please contact the office with any questions.

Thank you.
