Important Training Notice

As we prepare for the upcoming school year, the Pea Ridge Police Department and Pea Ridge Fire Department will be conducting active shooter response training at the High School today and again on Thursday.

This training is a vital part of our commitment to school safety and preparedness. It will involve realistic scenarios, role players, and a noticeable presence of police, fire, and emergency vehicles in the area.

✅ Please do not be alarmed — this is only a training exercise.
✅ These drills are designed to help our first responders be better prepared to protect our students, staff, and community in the event of an emergency.

We appreciate your understanding and support as we continue working to keep our schools safe. 💙
