SMETHPORT — Smethport Area School District Superintendent David London spoke about the district’s emergency operations plan Tuesday at the Smethport Rotary Club meeting at the Desert Rose Café.

Without divulging much detail, London explained that the safety plan, developed with a safety consultant who has a background in security, includes four standard protocols: evacuation, shelter-in-place, keep out and lockdown.

In-services about the procedures have been held at school and parents of children in the district have been informed about the plan.

In other business, Smethport attorney Tony Alfieri, the new club president, presented London with his vice-president’s pin after being inducted as president-elect for the coming year. London, now in his third year as superintendent of schools, transferred his Rotary membership from Punxsutawney, where he had been president for two-and a-half years and worked closely with the Rotary Youth Leadership Awards and Rotary Outstanding Vocational Awards programs.

Alfieri joined the Smethport Rotary Club in 1984. Now the first three-time club president, he has also served the club as sergeant-at-arms and chaired various committees.

Rounding out the club’s executive officers are Sue McClelland, secretary; and Patty Witchen, treasurer.
