Our emergency plan includes the following contingencies:
Procedures in case of Earthquake:
– During the earthquake, the students should be placed against a wall or next to their desks, away from windows and loose objects.
– When the earthquake has passed, the students, faculty and staff wait for the alarm to evacuate. (one bell, repeated) After the bell, evacuation procedures begin with the first floor, continuing to higher levels.
– Students will assemble at the designated safe haven (playground fence behind the school).
– If damage is sufficient to keep students from returning to the classroom, parents will be notified by phone using the numbers provided and may pick up their children at the gate of the playground fence.
