I just wanted to share a quick update. This morning, the fire alarms went off at the high school and the Cullom Fire Department did respond. While this was not a scheduled drill, I wanted to ensure to everyone that there was no fire and at no time was there any danger to any of our students. Our students and staff were great and responded just as they have been trained to do. Huge shout out to the Cullom Fire Department for a quick response as well. Thank you
