Davis County Family, As you may be aware, there has been an incident of school violence this morning at Perry High School, which is in a community just outside of Des Moines. While the details are not yet clear, our thoughts are with the students, staff, and families of Perry at this time. We want our families to know that we are in close contact with our local law enforcement officials. They believe the incident in Perry to be isolated and there is no indication of an active threat to school safety here in Davis County. The safety and security of our school community remains our top priority. We know that some students may struggle to process terrible news like this. Our school counselors are available and ready to assist, as needed. We encourage students to stop by the counseling office at their school at any time if they need support. If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact us. Thank you for your attention to this important message. Sincerely, Dan Maeder, Superintendent

Dear DC Parents & Community, Davis County has been fortunate to receive a S.T.O.P. Grant through the Federal Department of Justice that provides funds to support student safety through a variety of training efforts.  A large part of this effort is designed to improve the district’s training for emergency drills. On Monday, November 27, students and staff at the elementary school, middle school and high school will take part in what we are calling a complex fire drill.  Monday’s drill will be a little more involved than our “regular” fire drills and aims to assess our ability to think flexibly during a crisis and our communication ability in the event of an emergency.  Most students will not notice a difference in this drill, but some may notice that their class follows a little bit different procedure than usual.  Consultants from the Strategic Partnership Schools Group will be on site to observe the drill and debrief with leaders after the drill.  Sincerely, Davis County Schools
