QCHS Families, At 8:53 AM the fire alarm at Quakertown Community High School activated and students safely evacuated the building. The Quakertown Fire Department and other local first responders arrived swiftly to ensure our safety. After about 30 minutes the building was deemed safe by emergency officials and students were allowed to return to class. The alarm was caused by an experiment in a chemistry lab which resulted in smoke and a strong odor. No one was injured. Thank you to our community’s first responders for their quick action, and thank you to our students who treated this situation with the seriousness that it deserved. Sincerely, Mattias van 't Hoenderdaal Principal
