School Safety
In accordance with the Illinois State Board of Education policy, all schools are required on an annual basis to perform fire drills, a tornado drill, and a lockdown drill.  Today, in partnership with the Lake Forest Police Department, the high school participated in a lockdown drill. The drill took approximately 10 minutes and involved staff and students following all lockdown procedures.  Officers were assigned to each floor to check and monitor the drill. The safety of our students and staff is of utmost importance to us. Thanks to our staff, students and area officials for a successful drill.
