The school conducted a surprise earthquake drill on October 15, 2025, at exactly 9:00 a.m. as part of its third-quarter safety initiatives. Students, teachers, sisters, and staff were caught off guard when the alarm sounded, prompting everyone to respond promptly and calmly to the simulated emergency.

The drill aimed to reinforce proper earthquake response procedures, particularly the practice of “Duck, Cover, and Hold.” Upon hearing the alarm, all occupants followed safety protocols and proceeded to their designated evacuation areas in an orderly manner. Teachers guided students throughout the process, while school safety officers conducted thorough checks of classrooms and buildings to ensure that all areas were cleared.

Within minutes, the entire school community was safely assembled outside the buildings. Attendance was taken to confirm that no one was left behind, demonstrating effective coordination and communication during the drill.

The successful conduct of the earthquake drill highlighted the school’s readiness to respond to real-life emergencies. It also reinforced the importance of preparedness, safety awareness, and cooperation, strengthening the school’s commitment to maintaining a safe and resilient learning environment for all.
