High School Principal Mike Wilson told the board the district revised its severe-weather procedures after consulting three government entities and building review: students will stay in all classrooms during tornado or severe-weather drills because those rooms are underground and have no windows. "Upon review of our building and after consulting with three different government entities, we have decided that students will stay in all of our classrooms as they are all underground and have no windows," Wilson said.
