This afternoon, our Allentown students and staff practiced our first safety drills of the school year — a fire drill 🔥 and a lockdown drill 🔒.

We are happy to report that both drills went very well! Our Gators did a great job listening, following directions, and practicing the procedures that help keep everyone safe.

💚💙 Great job, Gators! 🐊 Allentown Children's First PTO
