FIRE DRILLS Each classroom has a set of directions for leaving the building during a fire drill. These directions are posted by the exit door. Students should be familiar with what to do in the event of a drill or fire. When the alarm sounds, students should move quickly and in an orderly manner towards an exit. When outside the building, each student should move with his/her class to a reasonable distance from the school and remain in a single file with his/her class. Students should return to the school with their teacher when signaled. If the fire alarm rings at lunchtime, students exit the cafeteria according to designated zones, and move outside in an orderly manner. Students will form a single file line with their class and await instructions from the monitors who will guide you. HALLWAY RULES Students are expected to behave in an orderly manner while in the hallway. Students who do not follow the rules will be subject to disciplinary action. TEXTBOOKS All textbooks are the property of and paid for by WCPS. These books are issued to students for their use. Once issued to the student, the book(s) become the student’s responsibility. Students should take good care of these books. Fines will be charged by the classroom teacher for damaged or lost textbooks. Price lists on all books are maintained in the main office. A lost textbook must be paid for before the student is issued a new one.
