Good Afternoon Mitchell Families,
This is Principal Miller. As you are aware, RUSD continues to implement a safety and security
protocol called ALiCE in all of our schools. ALiCE stands for Alert, Lockdown, Inform, Counter and
Evacuate.
I wanted to make you aware that earlier today your child participated in an ALiCE drill. During this drill,
students practiced barricading and then took part in an on-site evacuation. We appreciate the support
of our students and staff during today’s drill. Everyone worked together to ensure our school family is
equipped with the tools to react appropriately in the unlikely event of an active threat.
We wanted to make you aware that this was only a drill. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate
to contact me. Thank you for your understanding and support.

Good Evening Mitchell Families,
This is Principal Miller. As you are aware, RUSD implements a safety and security protocol called
ALiCE in all of our schools. ALiCE stands for Alert, Lockdown, Inform, Counter and Evacuate.
Tomorrow, October 28, your child will participate in an ALiCE lockdown drill. Over the last several
weeks, your child has been trained in ALiCE protocols and what to do in the unlikely event of an
intruder. Tomorrow, we will practice these protocols together as a whole school. We will not be evacuating during this drill, but we will be discussing what an evacuation looks like.
We wanted to make you aware that this is only a drill. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to
contact me. Thank you for your understanding and support. It is our responsibility to make sure our
students and staff are safe at school – that starts with making sure everyone is equipped with the tools
to react appropriately.

A special thank-you to Ron Willis for the fun left-right game and Amy Bloom for inspiring our families with creative ways to strengthen math skills at home through cards and fun card games!
We appreciate everyone who took the time to invest in their children and strengthen the connection between home and school.
