Mast Way Front Doors Locked Today

From Principal Gallo at Mast Way via ORSCD AlertNOW:

Mast Way — Front Doors are Locked

September 8, 2011

Hello Mast Way families,

For safety reasons, the main doors to our school are now locked throughout the school day. Please ring the bell (located to the right of the doors), and the secretary will buzz you in.

The doors will be unlocked between 3:00-4:00pm for student dismissal. Thank you for your cooperation!

Regards,
Kris Gallo

[UPDATE] Clarification from Principal Gallo that the above was a routine policy change, not a reaction to a security event:

We did not lock our front doors because of any specific or concerning incident. All of the other schools in our district have this security measure in place, so it was time for Mast Way to implement this safety feature as well. I am sorry for my lack of explanation when I announced this change. I understand that I frightened some of you.

Best regards,
Kris Gallo
