Quick Response from Fire and Police
False Alarm at Abington’s Co-located School
Abington's first responders arrive at the scene in front of the co-located middle and high school on Dec. 11 after an alarm sounded and students evacuated.
Today’s half-day of school was cut even shorter when the fire alarm rang during period 4. All students evacuated the school to brave cold tempatures. The alarm was false and students filed back in without incident. Once back inside the school, Mr. MacCurtain, principal of the middle school, made an announcement thanking the Abington Police and Fire Departments for responding quickly. Mr. MacCurtain also stated that “at no time was anyone in danger.” The day resumed as scheduled.
