False alarm leads to Composite High evacuation

Grande Prairie Composite High School was evacuated briefly this morning due to a false alarm.

The fire alarm went off around 11 a.m., but it turns out a small amount of water leaked onto a fire panel sensor.

Students were outside for around half an hour, and have been commended for clearing the building in just 78 seconds.

No injuries were reported.

 

Grande Prairie Public School staff are working to fix the problem with the sensor.
