Attention Parents/Caregivers: In an effort to promote safety in our schools, the Columbia Borough School District will be conducting active intruder drills at all three buildings this week. These drills will allow our students and staff to practice safety procedures while also helping our district to become safer through the knowledge gained and areas for improvement we identify each time a drill is done. While the drill will have set simulations at each building, we will not be utilizing any simulated weapons or weapon sounds for the drill. Once the drill concludes, students and staff will return to the building from our rally (safe) points. As part of this drill, we will ask that parents and guardians not come to the building to pick-up students during this time. Prior to our active intruder drill, staff will discuss school safety with students, including the details of the armed intruder drill. If you have any questions, please contact the building.

Reminder: Wednesday, May 12 is an early dismissal day. All students will dismiss at 1:00pm.
