Safety Drill Conducted Today...

Dear Blythewood Middle Parents,

Today at 1:15 p.m. our students and employees conducted a school-wide lockdown drill. This allowed us to practice what to do if there is ever an intruder on our campus.
The goals of drills throughout the school year are to improve our ability to keep our students and employees safe. These practice drills allow us to evaluate our emergency operation plans and improve our response skills.

Please talk with your child, if you deem it appropriate, about the drill. Our goal, while practicing important safety procedures, is to be sure all students feel safe.
If you have any questions or need further information, please do not hesitate to call us. Thank you for helping us keep the safety and welfare of our students our number one priority.
