Go Gold!!

This morning, the District Emergency Response Team, with assistance from the Middleboro Police and Fire Departments as well as First Responders from the surrounding towns of Middleboro visited all classrooms to talk to our students about school safety and to train all classrooms in the ABC's of emergency response.

Similar to practicing fire drills, preparing students and teachers for all possible emergencies is an essential component to ensuring safety and security while here at HBB. During this training Police, Firefighters and Administrators visited each class and spoke to students about what to do in the case of an emergency and practiced a variety of possible responses depending on the situation. In all situations, the most important aspect of this approach is for the students to listen to the teachers instructions.

Overall the kids and teachers did great and we are very appreciative of all the First Responders and Administrators that came out to speak to our kids. We will be practicing again later in the year, similar to the way we practice and prepare for fire drills. Should you have any questions or concerns after speaking with your child please do not hesitate to contact us.

Thank you and have a great weekend!
