WS/FCS will participate in the statewide tornado drill on Wednesday, March 6, at 9:30 a.m.

 9:30 a.m.: 

      A Tornado WATCH will be announced. Watches are called for an area when conditions exist for the formation of tornados, but no tornado has yet formed or been sighted. No action is required during a watch.

9:45 a.m.:           

      A tornado WARNING will be announced. The Tornado Drill will start with this announcement. Real warnings are called when a tornado has been sighted nearby. Accordingly, once the warning has been announced, move immediately to your designated location. As soon as everyone is in their location, we will assume the tornado position (Kneel down with head against the wall.  Cover head with arms.). These areas are marked in on the Tornado Evacuation Maps in your red binder. 

REMEMBER to have students sit close together.
