Active Shooter Training Announcement
Active Shooter Response Exercise
Scheduled at Peru Junior/Senior High School, October 15th 2025
All Miami County emergency services remain committed to ensuring the safety and security of our students, staff, and visitors. As part of our ongoing efforts to maintain a safe learning environment, an Active Shooter Response Training Exercise will be conducted at Peru Junior/Senior High School.
On that date, the presence of emergency responders is not an indication that there is a public threat. If, on that date, there is a threat to the public, local emergency agencies will notify the public via social media and through local radio stations. It should be noted that PCS are on Fall Break and no students will be in the buildings while training is being conducted.
Purpose of the Exercise:
This training is designed to prepare both our school communities and emergency response agencies for critical situations by practicing effective response strategies. It is a proactive measure to strengthen safety protocols and ensure that everyone knows what to do in the unlikely event of an active shooter incident.
Key Details:
• This will be a scenario-based exercise involving all county emergency response professionals.
• No live ammunition or dangerous materials will be used during the training.
• Emergency vehicles and personnel will be present around the school during the exercise. Please remember this is only a drill.
Public Notice:
We kindly ask the public not to stop by the training site to allow emergency personnel the space they need to conduct this important exercise.
For questions or additional information, please contact:
• Miami County Sheriff's Department

Thank you for your cooperation and support in helping us keep our schools and community safe.
