Walker School of Fine and Performing Arts.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">A series of two to three drills will be held daily starting this week and running to Oct. 15. Exact dates for the drills will not be divulged and like a traditional fire alarm, they can happen at any time.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">During the drills, the fire alarm system will be activated and officials will observe the evacuation and compile a report for the St. Catharine\u2019s fire department, who may also be onsite during the drills providing assistance.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">The drills will coincide with Fire Safety Week, however to limit the disruption, the evacuations will be spread out over eight days.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Other than the normal evacuation procedures, there is no additional actions required of occupants.
