Our Pre-K students explored the world of things that “glow in the dark” this week! They discovered that when you use highlighters under a black light, their artwork comes to life and actually glows! Other elementary students got creative using neon paint and bubbles to create their own unique art projects.

The students’ picture exhibit, featuring all of their colorful and creative artwork, was on display in the art room during Thursday night’s Fall Festival. It was a wonderful opportunity to showcase their creativity, learning, and a little bit of science!

🔒 SCHOOL SAFETY INFORMATION: UNDERSTANDING LOCKDOWN PROCEDURES

At Joppa-Maple Grove USD #38, the safety and well-being of our students and staff are always our top priority.

We want to help our families better understand the difference between a soft lockdown and a hard lockdown.

🟡 SOFT LOCKDOWN – Precautionary Measure

A soft lockdown is implemented when there is a potential safety concern in or around the school, but there is no immediate threat to students or staff.

During a soft lockdown:

Students and staff remain safely inside the building.

Exterior doors remain secured.

Classroom instruction and normal activities may continue.

Entry and exit from the building may be restricted.

School personnel closely monitor the situation.

🔴 HARD LOCKDOWN – Immediate Safety Concern

A hard lockdown is implemented when there is a potential or confirmed immediate threat to the safety of students or staff.

During a hard lockdown:

Students and staff move to designated secure areas.

Classroom doors are locked and secured.

Students and staff remain quiet and out of sight.

Movement throughout the building stops.

No one is permitted to enter or exit until authorities or school administration determine it is safe.

💚💛 OUR COMMITMENT TO SAFETY

We understand that hearing the word "lockdown" can be concerning for families. Please know that not every lockdown means there is an active threat or that someone is in danger.

These procedures allow us to respond appropriately to different situations while keeping our students and staff safe.

We appreciate your trust, patience, and cooperation as we work together to maintain a safe learning environment.
