'''Nickle School''' is a Junior High School in Calgary, AB. As of February 2023, The current system is currently being replaced with a Notifier addressable system.
 
==Current System Specifications==
'''Nickle School''' is a Junior High School located at 2500 Lake Bonavista Dr SE, Calgary, AB. It is part of the Calgary Board of Eduaction. It was built in 1970 and expanded in 1975. The fire alarm system was upgraded in 2023.

The building is protected by a Simplex 4002 Conventional Control panel. It is located at the front door. The panel will most likely not meet fate yet though. As a current board members company has the install and demo contract for a new system and is currently working on the new system now. The system is not expected to be completed for another several weeks. Until then this system must remain in service (01/27/2023)
The building is protected by a Notifier NFS-320C addressable fire alarm system. The panel is located at the front entrance, and is in an SBB-C4 cabinet to accommodate a power supply. The system runs Notifier's FlashScan addressable protocol, and the system coding is temporal.
