Sussex Central Elementary School
Pre-Lockdown Drill Notification
September 17, 2026
Dear SCES Community:
At Sussex Central Elementary School, our top priority is the safety of our students, faculty, and staff. We are committed to fostering a safe learning environment for all students and are always looking for ways to improve school security and safety. Therefore, we must practice our emergency and crisis plans throughout the school year by having our faculty, staff, and students participate in fire, tornado, shelter-in-place, and lockdown drills that simulate real-life scenarios.
Please be advised that Sussex Central Elementary School will conduct a lockdown drill tomorrow, September 18, 2026.
This drill is a routine safety exercise designed to ensure that our students and staff are familiar with the appropriate procedures to follow in the event of an emergency. We will conduct the drill in a manner that is developmentally appropriate for our students.
I will continue to keep you informed of safety and security measures in place at our school. If you have questions, please call or contact the school. As always, thank you for your continued support.
Sincerely,
Travis Councill
