Week 5 of A.L.I.C.E review. E - Evacuation. Evacuation is a strategy that needs to be thought out and practiced. An evacuation needs to be able to be executed quickly and safely.
To ensure a safe evacuation, it’s crucial to be mindful of your surroundings. Take a moment to consider the following:
-Are there multiple exits near you?
-What will you do if the exit you usually use is blocked?
-Are there windows you can safely exit through?
Explore the resources below to expand your knowledge on the different aspects of evacuation. Remember, it’s important to plan ahead and familiarize yourself with the locations of potential exits in the areas you frequent the most.
Track or treat!

In reviewing the data collected through FinalForms, it was found that we had an issue with the information that was collected on the Education Benefits form. This information is used to determine how funding is calculated for many of the grants and programs that we participate in at Mt. Pleasant Public Schools. We have cleared out the information in this form and we are asking that everyone please use the link below to log back into FinalForms and make sure that all parts of the Education Benefits form are filled out. Please make sure to sign the form when completed. We apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate you taking the time to fill this form out again. This is a time sensitive issue and your attention to this is greatly appreciated!

4th week of A.L.I.C.E review. This week is C - Counter. Counter is not fighting. Counter is a strategy of last resort. Counter focuses on actions that create noise, movement, distance and distraction with the intent of reducing the shooter's ability to shoot accurately. Counter is a strategy that is taught differently based on age.High schoolers can be taught a much more aggressive strategy as a kindergarten class that will be taught to scream and run. Any chance a possible victim can restart the thinking process of the intruder could buy them critical and possible life saving seconds.
Although Counter is a last resort, teachers need to know what resources they have available and have a plan if intruder is able to enter their classroom..
Save the date!
