Did you know? 🤔 Alamogordo Public Schools utilizes 3 crisis commands district-wide. Below is a simple chart that describes the actions and examples of when that command is utilized. 🙂 During the first four weeks of school, each school conducts a drill each week including a shelter-in-place that includes preparations to respond to an active shooter (lockdown), evacuation drill, and fire drill. #Allin4OurKids #HerefortheKids
