Friday, September 23, McNary High School went through their first fire drill for the current school year.

Fire drills are used to familiarize and reinforce proper evacuation routes and practices. And set a goal to have proper actions be an automatic response whenever fire alarms sound, so that everyone safely evacuates the area in an orderly manner.

At 1:35pm the alarm went off, as well as the intercom stating that this is a fire drill.

“It’s good for preparing for a real one,” senior Amanpreet Sandhu said.

“Quick and efficient,” senior Jayden Diarmit said.

At 1:45pm students proceeded straight to their 8th period class. The intercom reminded students to go straight to 8th period and not return back to 7th period.
