Dear Parent/Guardian:

The New Richmond Exempted Village School District has adopted A.L.i.C.E. training for our staff and students. The A.L.i.C.E. program is designed to give a person, or group of people, who may find themselves in a violent, life-threatening situation, some mental and physical tools that could play a vital role in their survival. The program is designed so that anybody can employ the strategies.
