Fire Alarm System
Testing
We wanted to inform you that the fire alarm system at our
school will be inspected and tested during the week of February 23.
The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) and the
Fairfax County Office of the Fire Marshal require Fairfax County Public Schools
to test `our fire alarm system annually. This test is very extensive, as they
must inspect and test each and every fire alarm device. This testing can only
be performed when the building is unoccupied; therefore, the typical hours of
testing are from approximately 10:00 P.M. until 5:00 A.M., Monday through
Friday. System testing can range from 1 day to 5 days, depending on building
size.
In an effort to minimize disruption to the community
members that live in close proximity to the school, the testing of the audible
portion (horns) of the system is performed at the end of the total system test
(the last testing day). The approximate amount of time that the audible portion
(horns) are activated is 15 minutes.
