Evacuation at UHS

Good morning,

We just got back into the building following a fire alarm evacuation at Uxbridge High School. We had a smoke detector trigger the alarm, after which we subsequently evacuated, got to a quick accountability, and worked efficiently with our partners from Uxbridge Fire and Police to discern the reason and reset the building's routine. While we were in the lunch block, this was an atypical evacuation compared to our earlier drill, but we are pleased with how the staff and students responded, particularly given the unforeseen and sudden nature of the alarm.

We appreciate the cooperation of our staff and students, and we now resume our regular schedule; we have made some adjustments to lunch, but no lunch time was compromised, even if it were delayed a bit.

Thank you!



Mike Rubin, Principal
Uxbridge High School
