Today we had a practice emergency drill with the support of ABSS and the city of Burlington. This required us to practice evacuating the building and loading buses in case of a real situation that would have required us to leave campus. Staff and students did a wonderful job and all went well. We appreciate the support of the district staff and emergency services of Burlington and Alamance County. Your children were true leaders today!

ABSS ALERT: Alamance Co. Emergency Services will be conducting a training exercise around Andrews and CTEC tomorrow (2/1/23). You will likely see law enforcement, emergency personnel, and experience additional traffic in the area. This is just training, do not be alarmed.
