COMMUNITY NOTICE: “Senior Assassin” Joel Barlow High School Class of 2026
Redding Police Department is aware that members of the Joel Barlow High School senior class may be participating in the annual “Senior Assassin” game in the coming days.
While this is a long-standing tradition, the Redding Police Department or Joel Barlow High School does not endorse participation. Our priority is ensuring the safety of our students, families, and the community, while preventing unnecessary alarm.
________________________________________
COMMUNITY AWARENESS
Residents may observe students carrying water guns in neighborhoods or public areas.
If you observe unsafe behavior or someone carrying what appears to be a real weapon, do not approach, call 911 immediately. Officers will respond and investigate.
________________________________________
IMPORTANT REMINDER
This is intended to be a game, but it can quickly become dangerous if poor decisions are made.
No game is worth:
• A motor vehicle crash
• Someone feeling threatened
• A police response involving a perceived weapon

MESSAGE TO SENIORS & FAMILIES
We want you to enjoy the end of your senior year, but do so responsibly. Think about how your actions appear to others in the community.
Make good decisions. Stay safe. Look out for one another.

The weather is perfect for Ice/Water Rescue training! We kicked off tonight with a refresher on equipment and best practices. Next Monday, our volunteers will practice getting in the water and safely completing a rescue!
