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!

PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE & MOMENT OF
SILENCE
TODAY IS A “B” DAY
THERE WILL BE NO SCHOOL on
Monday, November 11, 2019, in observance of Veterans Day.
Our
next show, The Light Burns Blue, opens Wednesday and continues this week
at 7:00 Thursday and Friday night! Come check it out—it’s based on the
true story of a photography hoax in England, The Cottingley Fairies. The
play doesn’t focus as much on the question of whether the photos were real so
much as the fine line between art and hoax. This is our first
coproduction with TMCC Department of Theatre and we’re very proud to bring this
new play to our stage!
All
Bowlers or if you are still interested in joining the bowling team. Make sure to get
your fees turned in and let Mr. Fournier know what size shirt you need for the
season ASAP.
