During a professional development week before the start of school, all faculty and staff at Community Day School participated in the ALICE Training Program under the leadership of Brad Orsini, director of Jewish community security at the Jewish Federation of Greater Pittsburgh, with the support of the Pittsburgh Police Sergeant Eric Kroll and CDS School Safety Officer Nate Muscato. ALICE is an acronym for Alert, Lockdown, Inform, Counter, Evacuate, and the training program prepares individuals and organizations in how to more proactively handle the threat of an aggressive intruder or active shooter event. The five-hour session was preceded by online training and included two onsite drills involving all CDS staff and the full campus.
