| Emergency! Emergency! |  | Every school has a emergency plan for most conceivable threats. When a
emergency occurs (such as an act or terrorism, a weather disaster,
etc.) Do Not Call the School. You may tie up critical phone lines needed by emergency personnel.
After
the 9/11 attacks, concerned citizens calling to check on loved ones’
status clogged phone lines and made communication difficult for
rescuers.
The school will take responsibility for your child
until the threat has passed, and it is safe to release your child,
either through ordinary school transportation or parent pick-up. If
parents need to pick up children, they will be notified.
In the event of a tornado or other weather emergency students will be directed to safe areas of the school to wait out the storm.
Parents are encouraged to tune in to weather stations, local media and other sources of weather information.
In the event or a terroristic act, bomb threat or other emergency staff are trained to take appropriate action.
Students
may be evacuated to pre-arranged locations, if appropriate. If Parents
need to pick up children, they will be notified.
