School lock down drill at MHS

Having a lock down without knowing if it’s real or a drill was a  frightening experience at MHS yesterday. During pause, some people heard the lock down signal over the intercom. Others who didn’t hear just  followed other students.

20 minutes in the lock down, with the classroom silent,the teachers announced that the lock down was a drill. Some students didn’t take it as serious as some and spent their time posting live videos on Instagram live.

Rooms were cleared 0ne-by-one by Rexburg police officers and school administration.  A text was sent to the parents alerting them of the drill.

The drill was used as training for area law enforcement officers and school employees. Everyone turned out okay.
