Student
Safety
~From the Corral
Damonte Ranch High School is committed to school safety. If your student hears about a possible
threat or impending school incident, please have them immediately report it
to school administration to ensure school staff is aware of it. Please tell your student to refrain from
posting the information on social media, as this creates rumors and
panic. Remember, your student’s
responsible actions can help keep students safe and they can remain
anonymous.
The WCSD provides video surveillance on school campus’ as well as on
each school bus to help keep students safe.
Schools are required to practice a monthly emergency drill. The best way for students to help during
an emergency is to be where they are expected to be and follow the
emergency procedures they practice.
Monthly, DRHS practices one of the following drills:
·
Fire Evacuation Drills teach students how to appropriately evacuate
the building and where to report to.
·
A Code Yellow, securing perimeter doors, is utilized to prevent the
occurrence of a major incident when conditions indicate a higher than
normal threat level is present NEAR campus.
·
A Code Red lockdown is utilized when an actual crisis situation or
impending threat has occurred on school campus (or across the street/near
campus).
·
A Code Blue is utilized for a medical emergency. A trained Code Blue team responds to
medical emergencies.
Students have
already practiced a fire drill, earthquake drill, code red drill and a code
blue drill this school year. Safety
is always our primary concern!

Kids
in Africa need your help –
And
it’s as easy as cleaning out your closet!
Children
in many African countries cannot attend school if they don’t have close toed
shoes to wear.
This
means the poorest of the poor can’t get an education.
JAG
Damonte is partnering with Think Kindness to collect as many shoes as possible
to take to kids in Africa.
Please
take a look in your closet for gently used closed toed shoes and bring them to
your IC before Friday, May 10th.
Any
size will do.
We
will have collection bags in every IC and the IC class that collects the most
pairs of shoes will win a Pizza Party compliments of JAG Damonte!
