Students and staff at Copper Canyon and Westvale Elementary Schools were among the nearly one million Utahns who dropped, covered, and held on during the Great Utah ShakeOut on Thursday.
With 90% of the Utah population, including all of Jordan School District living in an active earthquake zone, earthquake preparedness is crucial in our schools and buildings.
Thanks to everyone who participated in the ShakeOut, taking time to review earthquake procedures, and practicing the actual earthquake drill at 10:15 a.m. with others around the State.
Students and staff did a great job following directions, keeping calm, and learning how to stay safe in the event of an earthquake.
